Changes and trends on vegetables and fruits' market in Romania.

The research of the present study describes the changes and trends on vegetables and fruits’ market. In achieving this goal, a detailed analysis of supply, demand and prices was done. The results show that both supply and demand are increasing in 2006 compared to 2005. Also, in Romania, vegetables and fruits’ supply is lower than demand; this is why imports are needed. The supply is unstable, this situation rising obstacles in organizing activities in this sector, for which concentrating production is needed for acquiring large quantities of merchandise. These conclusions have strong implications for both macro and micro economic levels. Chain operators may acquire a higher level of profit by knowing these trends. Policy makers may use these results in their efforts of elaborating strategies at macroeconomic level.
