An ancestral occupation, with a fundamental role in ensuring the survival and the development of humanity, agriculture is today the subject of extensive transformations. The challenges are various, the pressure amplifying especially in the context of more and more frequent warnings issued regarding the eminent onset of a serious food crisis. From the point of view of the agricultural potential, Romania is one of the extremely well represented countries. However, there are many causes that underlie an insufficient unlock of this potential. The purpose of our paper is to analyse the characteristics of the agricultural production in Romania, respectively to identify its specific, but also the development perspectives (expansion and diversification of production) in the new setting.
