Cereals Market in Romania under the Impact of the Common Agricultural Policy
The aim of this paper is to analyses the cereals market after Romania accession to European Union. Thus, I considered necessary and appropriate to achieve the dynamic analysis of production, prices, trade, consumption, and self-sufficiency that provides an overview on the evolution of the cereals market in Romania, in the European context, starting from resources representing the demand, to the uses that represent the supply. I also point out the main mechanisms and support instruments for the cereals market under the Common Agriculture Policy, in the period 2007-2013 and towards 2014-2020.
THE CRISIS OF DIRECT PAYMENTS APPLICATION ON ROMANIAN AGRICULTURE
This paper presents the importance of supporting agriculture in Romania in the current financial and economic crisis, focusing on the difficult situation in which the agricultural sector is today. Agricultural direct support payments of CAP Pillar I is a great opportunity to improve the current situation for small farms, respectively the subsistence and semi-subsistence ones. Financially and politically, direct payments are the most important element of the CAP. In Romania, various forms of environmental exploitation cannot benefit from this type of subsidy, due to their small dimensions. In this paper we will show concrete examples of this phenomenon.
