Abstract:
ity consists in securing of the access to normal nourishment for each
person, at any moment.
The vegetables bring important quantities of vitamins, provitamins
and various mineral salts to food, being from this point of view, beside fruits,
through the most important nutriment for the human consumption.
Most of vegetables have a pleasant taste, which is specific to each
variety. Some vegetables are rich in ethereal oils and carbohydrates, which
stimulate the appetite.
The vegetable growing represents a branch very important in the
structure of the Romanian agricultural production and has major
implications in national economy, and particularly in human nourishment.
After the year 1989, the Romanian vegetable production has had a
descending tendency concerning both the cultivated surface and the total
production.
The revitalization of the Romanian vegetable growing, the increase
of economic efficiency and the correlation with the national interests can be
realised through the reconsideration of positive elements and the
introduction of new elements of management and performance marketing, in
accordance with the principles and the Directives elaborated by the
European Commission i+n Brussels.
The optimization of the structure of vegetable crops appears because
of the necessity of planning in territorial profile of the vegetable production,
respectively a judicious division into zones and a rational joint of cultures.
The optimization of the structure of vegetable crops must ensure the
increase of the agricultural production, the amelioration of its quality and
the increase of the profitability in all zones and productive units.

The optimal variant of the structure of vegetable crops is the one that
ensures the maximum profit, where the land was organized on alternation of
crops, in accordance with its economic estimation, regardless the zone.
In the studied area, the authors have observed a pronounced
instability of the vegetable production. This phenomenon relates to the lack
of performance of the vegetable growing farms, which is generated by the
insufficient correlation between the main resources of production, such as
the land, the labour force and the operational capital.
This fact explains also the insufficient efficiency of the vegetable
production, which is mainly determined by the inadequate use of the arable
land, the lack of technical and economic background of the new landowners,
as compared to the requests of a modern, profitable vegetable growing,
which is oriented to the market economy.
Afterwards, the complex process of the Romanian integration into the
unique European market imposes a different approach of the optimization
process and the use of agricultural resources, as well as of the technical,
economic and organizational indicators from the vegetable growing sector.
The process of Romanian integration into European market must
correspond to the new requests of the market and to the correlation between
the demand and the offer, which are particular to a competitive market.
