Abstract


The paper addresses agriculture in Romania, a vital sector of the country's economy, also influenced by factors such as subsidies received by farmers and European funds. We know that Romania has considerable agricultural potential, but the development of agriculture has been affected by economic, social and environmental challenges. European funds represent an important chapter in the activity carried out at the farm level. Romanian agriculture has managed to attract substantial funds in recent years from the European Union and to take steps towards modernization, especially through agribusiness projects considered the main driver. The analysis of agricultural crops shows changes in the cultivated areas and the average productions that have been obtained. Agriculture contributes only 4-5% to Romania's GDP, but it could become substantial in the coming period through the transition to digitalization, agribusiness and sustainability.
