Abstract:
Natural resources are the most important agricultural activity inputs. Often, their use and exploit determine the
performance of farms. Market acts as a mobilizing factor in determining the structure of production. Farmer’s decision
must take into account both market demand and capacity of natural resources to sustain quality production.
Pursuit of sustainable agriculture requires special attention on use of natural resources for long term. The extent to
which they are currently used mark the value of future production. Through diversification, the farmer has a double
advantage: it made the unfavourable evolution of the housing market prices and quantities for certain agricultural
products and preserve the quality of land resources favouring maintaining a winning spree on subsequent periods.
In what position are Romanian farms and how they deal with this problem? We propose in this paper highlighting the
main concerns and solutions to the farmers in Romania for sustainable development of their holdings. In this approach
should be taken into account the main types of holdings and activities that have a major impact on the process of
diversification.
