Summary/Abstract: The paper presents the basic ideas for the conceptualization and the development of an informatics system for planning the pastoral beekeeping in Romania, with a study case at level of Ilfov County. This informatics system for planning the pastoral beekeeping integrates administrative and geographic information database, surfaces and melliferous potential of the main melliferous plants in Romania (acacia - Robinia pseudocacia L., lime - Tilia tomentosa Moench.; Tilia cordata Mill.; Tilia platyphyllos Scop., rapeseed - Brassica napus L. ssp. oleifera Metzg., and sunflower - Helianthus annuus L.), the average multiannual climatic data, as well as a database concerning the number of beekeepers and beehives and their territorial repartition in each homogenous zone. The informatics system for planning the pastoral beekeeping is thought as a tool to be used by decision makers at national and regional level for planning the pastoral activity of the beekeepers in Romania. In the same time, this informatics system is thought as a useful tool to be used by beekeepers in view to get information about the repartition and places of the melliferous forests and crops, as well as about their melliferous potential according to the climatic conditions of the year.
