CHALLENGES AND RISKS FOR ROMANIAN FARMERS
Abstract:
Despite other sectors, agriculture faces the direct influences of the environment and climate. Today climate change represents a challenge for farmers around the world, not only for Romanian ones. The paper deals with this problem and agriculture resilience. It brings to attention the important issue of resilience and the challenges for agriculture and for farmers, especially for small farmers. The research is based on questionnaires applied to farmers focusing on their perception of risks, adaptation options and barriers. There were used qualitative risk analysis tools as risk management matrix and Venn Diagram to underline the farmers perception. In our analysis, we also considered coupling the risks with the supporting measures applied at national level. In the paper we analyzed each risk item related to agriculture starting from irrigation and going till agroecology. The farmers have prioritized the risks, the main risk being the ones related to water and agroecology, and they appreciated the interconnections between some of them.
