He completed an internship at the Mediterranean Agronomic Institute, Montpellier, France, specializing in socio-economics of regional development. <\/p>\n An agronomist and economist engineer, Aurel Lup began his professional career as a trainee researcher at the Valu lui Traian Agricultural Research Station, Constan\u021ba County, in December 1958. In January 1962, he was promoted to research scientist, and in April 1962 he was seconded as chief agronomist-engineer at CAP F\u00e2nt\u00e2na Mare, Constan\u021ba County.

During this period he established a hybrid grain sorghum breeding field and experimented the first grain sorghum hybrids in the area. Upon returning to Valu lui Traian resort in 1967, he started collaborating with the Institute of Agricultural Economics\/ASASAS on various topics, including: economic efficiency of different plant products under Dobrogea conditions; optimal sizing of socialist agricultural units; economic substantiation of production structures at farm and zonal levels; use of operational research methods in modeling different economic processes such as: Optimization of crop structure at different levels (agricultural unit, county, zone), optimization of tractor endowment, optimization of fodder rations, using linear programming and electronic computers; economic efficiency of irrigated farming system. <\/p>\n After 1985, thanks to collaboration contracts with the Institute of Research and Technological Engineering for Irrigation and Drainage ICITID – B\u0103neasa Giurgiu, Aurel Lup extended his research in the entire area of concentration of irrigation schemes in the south and east of the country.
