RURAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES IN THE ROMANIAN BIOECONOMY
Abstract
The development of sustainable rural bioeconomy generates multiple opportunities for rural areas. These benefits (economic, social and environmental) are crucial. The bioeconomy sector can sustainably and intelligently support the economic and social development of rural areas in Romania. The bioeconomy sector development can be crucial to improve the performance and to revitalize rural areas, to create jobs and manage sustainably the natural resources. In Romania, a large part of the bioeconomy sector in GDP is obtained in rural areas, so this paper identifies the development opportunities of this sector and the benefits it can bring to rural areas. To highlight the importance of the bioeconomy for the development of rural areas in Romania, we used mainly the indirect research technique, but also the statistical analysis. The analysis allowed me to conclude that the main activity specific to the bioeconomy in rural areas is agriculture, the other economic activities having minor contributions. Therefore, it is necessary to involve all local stakeholders in order to capitalize on local resources and develop other activities.
