The aim of this paper is, on the basis of available data from regional databases and through the use of appropriate methodological apparatus, to draw attention to the development of Slovak regions’ structural employment proportion on the total employment according to the sectors of agriculture, industry, construction and services in the time period from 2004 to 2012. The article examined the similarity of regions in terms of structural employment through cluster analysis at NUTS 2 level. Counties are grouped into four mutually similar clusters. Keywords: employment, region, disparity The overall situation in the labour market is affected by experiencing a migration loss. On the other hand, there is the labour supply which is conditioned by development an increasing migration to the Bratislava region. Nižňanský and non-economic factors (demographic and social ones (2007) stresses that economic development and thereby in particular). Another factor affecting the labour market solution of regional disparities between regions and also situation is demand for labour, which is determined by within regions is not a task for the national governments technological and economic implications arising from the primarily. The approach is different in different countries and use of labour in combination with other production factors.

The region of Nitra has excellent climatic conditions for the cultivation of agricultural crops, including vegetables. Among the most widely grown vegetables belong cabbage, carrots, parsley, onions, tomatoes, peppers, red watermelons, and sweet corn. Keywords: vegetables, production, area The Nitra region covers an area of 6,343 km2, occupying in the districts of Komárno and Nové Zámky. There was 12.9% of the area of Slovakia. In the region there are 350 593 ha of vegetables grown in the Nitra district (Meravá municipalities, 15 of which have city status. The county is et al., 2011). divided into seven districts, namely: Komárno, Levice, Nitra, The greatest volume of vegetables was produced in the Nové Zámky, Šaľa, Topoľčany, and Zlaté Moravce. The largest district of Levice (7,343 t), followed by the Nové Zámky of them is the Levice district, and conversely the smallest district (7,114 t) and the district of Komárno (4,538 t).

Abstract: The park and non-park objects in 90 settlements of Levice district were searched. Together 70 objects situated in 48 settlements (villages or towns) were found during inventory of woody species in May – September 2011. The results showed that in 90 settlements of Levice district there are situated 70 park and non-park objects. The total number of woody species fluctuated between 4 and 111 pieces, in Čajkov park and Levice city park, respectively. The percentage of introduced, autochthonous, broadleaves and coniferous woody taxa was also determined. In the studied objects there dominated mostly introduced woody taxa and broadleaves.. Keywords: introduced tree species, park objects, Levice, inventory Introduction All forms of greenery have positive influence on people and his environment.

  • Slovak Republic 2003 FOREWORD
    FOREWORD FOREWORD In May 2004, several years of efforts concentrated on meeting conditions for accession of Slovak Republic (SR) to European Union (EU) culminated. SR together with 9 other candidate countries became full members of the EU. The phase of negotiating and meeting conditions for EU accession for chapter 22 Environment within the meaning of National Accession Program - acquis communautaire was completed before the end of 2002. SR fulfilled all environmental requirements of EU, with the exception of 7 negotiated transitional periods for implementation of the most consumptive directions. By this time determinative steps for harmonisation of the Slovak environmental legislation with the one of EU had been made. In 2003 SR followed up with the integration efforts from previous years, and further effort was focused especially on introducing and implementation of the environmental legislation system into practice. From the viewpoint of the harmonisation of environmental legislation, one of the most important steps in 2003 was adoption of the Act No. 245/2003 Coll. on Integrated Prevention and Control of Environment Pollution and on Amendment of some Laws. The aim of this law is to accomplish an overall high level of environment protection by providing for a balanced integrated evaluation of all elements of the environment by the authorities of public administration while allowing facility, which can in crucial way pollution of environment cause. A significant role in this process has been entrusted to Slovak Environment Inspectorate. Consecutively to the EU General Directive on Waters, a proposal of a new Water Act was prepared in 2003, which was adopted by the National Council of Slovak Republic as Act No.

  • Secondary Landscape Structure Changes in the Town of Levice During the Period 1810 – 1869 and 2011
    SECONDARY LANDSCAPE STRUCTURE CHANGES IN THE TOWN OF LEVICE DURING THE PERIOD 1810 – 1869 AND 2011 Martin Cintula Department of Ecology and Environmental Sciences, Faculty of Natural science, Constantine the Philosopher University in Nitra, Tr. A. Hlinku 1, 949 74 Nitra, Slovakia Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract The aim of this thesis is to compare and analyse the causes of landscape structure changes within the area of the town of Levice that occurred between the second military mapping (1810 – 1869) and the year 2011. The area analysis from the point of view of the secondary landscape structure provides us with the forms of land use in the investigated time horizons and the resulting changes. Key words: the present landscape structure, the historical landscape structure, Levice, landscape changes 1 Delimitation of the Territory The town of Levice in located in the north-eastern part of the Nitra Region and its cadastre extends mostly on the alluvial plain of the Hron River, but its northern and eastern edges were built on the undulating forelands of the Ipeľ Hills. The elevation ranges between 152 – 273 m above sea level. The population was on December 31, 2011 34,384 (http://www.statistics.sk). The area is overlapped by National Nature Reserve Horšianska dolina (Horša Valley) with unique xerothermic flora and the protected site Levické Rybníky (Levice Ponds), which is the site of rare waterfowl. In addition to the central part, the town of Levice has the following four districts – Kalinčiakovo, Čankov, Mýtne Ludany and Horša, which were incorporated into the town in 1976 (Švoliková, 2010).
