Ways for Romanian Holding Refreshment – a Point of View
Keywords:
holdings, economic size (European Size Unit – ESU), production, competitivity, productivityAbstract
The current situation of the most Romanian holdings does not allow the performance of a high-quality and competitive agricultural production on the internal market and on the external market as well and the provision of a decent standard of living for farmers. The overtaking of this situation supposes the conversion of the country-like family holdings into modern trading family holdings, able to induce technological progress and to valorise the natural, labour and material resources available in our country.
The activity content for the formation of such holdings is represented by the enhancement of their economic capacity and of their competitional power, in concordance with the requirements of future agriculture and of Romania’s integration in the EU structures. The accomplishment of such an objective implies actions and measures of agricultural policy, correlated to each other and sustainable, which should combine the private economic interest with the national one.
