Abstract:
The issue of sustainable development of the agriculture in the Republic of Moldova has become very important lately.
Thus, the sustainable development of the agriculture in the Republic of Moldova can be defined as a continuous and
consecutive growth of the agricultural activity results. The development of the agricultural sector is of major importance
for the Republic of Moldova. The rural population is 58%, whose income comes from agriculture or from other
agricultural activities. That’s why, the state should support the rural population, whose income is directly dependent on
the agricultural sector.
The main objectives of the rural development department are: creating viable rural areas, stimulating economic growth,
increasing competition in the agriculture, food and forestry sectors, ensuring a sufficient level of self-sufficiency,
rational use of natural resources and tackling climate change, setting favorable conditions for improving the quality of
life in rural areas. The Republic of Moldova still has to work on them.
