    Enhancing the competitiveness of agricultural value chains in Moldova: national strategic directions
    (University of Agronomic Sciences and Veterinary Medicine of Bucharest, 2025) Stratan, Dumitru
    Moldova's agricultural sector is a key economic pillar, yet its potential remains underutilized due to technological gaps, infrastructure deficits, market fragmentation, and financial constraints. This study examines strategies to enhance four key value chains-vegetable production, soft fruits, apiculture, and sheep/goat farming-through improved infrastructure, policy reforms, cooperative strengthening, and expanded financial access. The research integrates an extensive literature review, statistical analysis, and primary data from 100+ respondents via surveys, guided interviews, and participatory consultations. Sources include reports from the National Bureau of Statistics, FAO- Food and Agriculture Organization, GIZ- Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit, IFADInternational Fund for Agricultural Development and others. Additionally, consultations with policymakers and industry leaders provided critical insights into investment needs and regulatory barriers. The study employs a mixed methods approach, combining thematic qualitative analysis with quantitative statistical interpretation. By triangulating data from multiple sources, this research offers a comprehensive assessment of Moldova’s value chains, delivering evidence-based recommendations for stakeholders, policymakers, and development partners to drive competitiveness, sustainability, and market expansion.

    Economic and energy assessment of emissions from European agriculture: a comparative analysis of regional sustainability and resilience
    (MDPI, 2025) Sargu, Lilia; Ignat, Gabriela; Timus, Angela; Prigoreanu, Ioan; Sargu, Nicu
    This study analyzes the economic and energy dimensions of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from agriculture at the European level, making a regional comparison for the period 2000–2022. The research assesses the sustainability and resilience of agricultural systems through regional comparisons, analyzing emissions at the farm and agricultural land level using indicators such as emissions per capita, emissions relative to economic value and emissions per hectare of agricultural land, providing insights into the disparities between Eastern, Northern, Southern and Western European regions. The results reveal significant variations in emissions intensity and sustainability practices between regions, with Northern Europe showing the highest emissions per unit due to intensive agriculture, Southern and Eastern Europe showing lower emissions influenced by climatic conditions and economic transitions, and Western Europe showing a balance between agricultural intensification and sustainability due to early adoption of advanced technologies. The study underlines the importance of adapting regional strategies to increase sustainability and energy resilience in agriculture, providing valuable insights for integrating renewable energy sources, optimizing resource use and implementing targeted policies to reduce emissions.
