RESEARCH REGARDING THE METHODS OF VALORIZATION OF VEGETABLE PRODUCTION AT THE LEVEL OF AGRICULTURAL HOLDINGS IN ROMANIA.

Perhaps one of the most difficult stages in the entire production process is the sale of vegetable production at a price high enough to cover production costs, and especially profitability which is a key factor contributing to the continuation of the activity. In this sense, the present study aims to identify the main ways to capitalize vegetable production of agricultural holdings in Romania. In order to identify the ways of capitalizing the production, a questionnaire was applied to 180 respondents, represented by the managers of some agricultural farms from all over the country. The purpose of the application of this questionnaire was to identify the aspects that hinder the capitalization of vegetable production. According to the study, the majority of farms in Romania are still run or managed by mostly men. At the same time, according to the analyzed sample, young people have the highest share of total respondents, so that the measures pursued through the two Rural Development Programs, namely to rejuvenate generations of farmers, we can say that they have achieved the goal.
