- Abstract
There are in Romania particularly favourable pedo-climate conditions for developing truck farming, for increasing its share of national wealth, for meeting vital food requirements of the population, or for increasing exports. The Romanian market of vegetables is characterised by unbalance between demand and offer, caused mainly by the seasonal character of the vegetable production. Neither producers, nor traders can meet the continuous consumers' demand of vegetables on the market. Balancing demand and offer can be done by completing the latter with imports of fresh vegetables from countries where vegetable cultivation is not seasonal. The offer should be as continuous as possible; the solution to do so is double: greenhouse or solarium cultivation, and storage in conditions that allow market offer prolongation. This is why we need to adopt policies meant to develop vegetable culture, taking into account the three advantages of such a culture: the very favourable ecological frame, tradition, and potential of the domestic market.
