Year: 2018

Type: article

Abstract: Organic farming appeared as an alternative to intensive farming. This type of agriculture implies the use of a set of techniques and practices that result in yield that provide the necessary foods for the population taking into account sustainable use of resources. This study presents the results of an analysis regarding the evolution of organic farming in Romania during 2007-2013, emphasising the number of economic actors operating in organic farming, areas cultivated in an organic system, and the main organic crops. The main conclusion of the study is that organic agriculture is a dynamic sector of Romanian agriculture with an ascending trend in the last years, with true opportunities for development through the conversion of the farming system specific to subsistence agriculture into organic farming.
