PERSPECTIVES OF THE ORGANIC FOOD PRODUCTS MARKET IN ROMANIA
PERSPECTIVES OF THE ORGANIC FOOD PRODUCTS MARKET IN ROMANIA

Summary/Abstract: “Organic farming”, protected term attributed by the EU to Romania to define this system of farming, is similar to the terms, “organic” or “biologic” used in other member states. This system of agriculture represents a “modern” way to cultivate plants, to fatten livestock and to produce food, which differs fundamentally from conventional agriculture. The role of organic farming is to produce cleaner food, more appropriate to the human metabolism, but in complete correlation with environmental conservation and development, in respect of nature and its laws. One of the main goals of organic farming is to produce food with genuine taste, texture, and attractive qualities. These are obtained in the stage production at the farm by strictly prohibiting the use of genetically modified organisms and drastic restrictions on the use of pesticides and fertilizers, stimulators and regulatory growth hormones, antibiotics and intensive systems for animal growth.
