Abstract:
The offer of agrifood products appears on the market directly of indirectly through intermediaries. On the market we
will meet the offer under its two components: the active offer which represents the total agrifood products engaged by
commercial companies from producers and distributors in a certain period of time; the passive offer which represent the
existent stocks in the commercial network.
The structure of the agrifood products offer comprises a multitude of products such as: vegetal products; animal
products; fresh products; industrial processed products; semi processed products etc.
The share of these categories in the offer structure evolves from one stage to the other also as a results of the integration
process of the agriculture with the food industry, offering consumers fresh agrifood products. This way the structure of
agrifood products will be in a continuous, permanent change, so that every consumers needs can be met, inclusive those
with low incomes.
