"Through the governing programme we undertook to set up of the UNIREA Agro Food House of Commerce, which is named like this in order to mark the 100 years of agriculture and Romanian high quality products. We are adopting today a normative act by which we set up this functional commercial mechanism that will contribute to a better capitalisation on the resources and national agricultural production, and to support farmers and the Romanian farms on the domestic and foreign markets," stated Viorica Dancila.

The agricultural policies and of rural development implemented by the Romanian Government have provided incentives for the agricultural sector to continue to be an economic growth engine.
