TRADE OPPORTUNITIES FOR ROMANIA. PROSPECTS AND RECORDED PERFORMANCES OF THE ORGANIC FOOD PRODUCTS AT THE LEVEL OF THE ROMANIAN EXPORTS

Summary/Abstract: Debates on the issues related to the role played by the agriculture in the economic development should be considered as having primarily a macroeconomic perspective with a focus on growth-oriented policies. At the EU level, agriculture has always benefited from increased attention regarding the policies and the measures that had to be applied and has always been subject to some of the most controversial debates. Special focus has to be paid to the changes that have occurred nowadays in the demand trends and consumer behavior in relation to the food products, generating this way an increased attractiveness for the organic agriculture sector and organic food products. The organic agriculture has greatly expanded in Romania over the recent years, having a steady growth triggered by an increase in both the internal and external demand for this category of products. We should also state that, there is a constant interest in encouraging this niche sector, interest that can and should develop into a competitive advantage for the Romanian agriculture. As we have mentioned in the title, this paper will try to identify the future prospect and also point out the place occupied by this sector of activity at the level of the Romanian total exports.
