Summary/Abstract: I would start wondering what one would respond to a simple question: “What agriculture means? “Is it just THAT countryside job? Is it working in a farm, feeding animals? Is it sowing corn for home use? Well, agriculture is a huge industry that involves rural areas and its communities, natural resources and not least, human resources. The enlarged European Union and the specificity of rural areas imply a new vision for the application of the common agricultural policy, so that basic principles, such as the maintenance of a single market and financial solidarity, are respected. The purpose of the paper is point out some generalities about agriculture in the socio-economic context in Romania.
