Rural poverty in Romania and the need for diversification: Carpathian studies
Abstract: The poverty problem is particularly serious in rural Romania and arises from heavy dependence on small subsistence farms with little alternative employment. Case studies from the Carpathians reveal that there is no viable basis for intensification on these farms and there is a consensus that it is irrational to try and modernise them unless the average size can increase substantially. Hence the solution lies in a massive structural change in agriculture linked with retraining and redeployment of a section of the present workforce. However new jobs in agricultural services and light industry will depend on a radical improvement of the rural infrastructure and higher spending power by the rural population as a whole.
