PROVIDING FOOD SECURITY IN ROMANIA. CHALLENGES AND FINANCING

Abstract

In the current geopolitical context, food security has become once again a very important target. The paper presents Romania’s current situation, analysed on the basis of GFSI (Global Food Security Index) developed by Economist Intelligence Unit/ Economist Impact (EIU). The guarantee of an objective analysis is to examine the Romanian food security situation based on the interpretation of indicators that are recognised at international level. Food security in Romania is challenged by the current socio-economic context like in many other EU member states. The major challenge is the European strategies aiming at a greener agriculture according to the European Green Deal. This is reflected in the way the agricultural sector is financed, meaning a greener CAP budget
