Abstract: The current paper outlines the objectives of agricultural and rural development in Romania. At the end of the first decade of the 21st century, Romania still has to recover considerable gaps as compared to the other European Union Member States, at the same time with the adoption and transposition of sustainable development principles and practices in the globalisation context. The first part focuses on strategic targets of Romania’s agriculture and rural development. The paper continues with the National Strategic Framework priorities for the sustainable development of the agro-food sector and of the rural area during 2014-2020-2030. The last part presents rural development objectives and priorities. The conclusion is that the priority for the modernisation of agriculture and rural economy should be substantiated by the vital economic and social functions of the agro-food system: ensuring the balanced nourishment of population, the necessary raw materials for non-agricultural activities and a pro-active and profitable export of agrofood products, increasing the landscapes capital of the rural area and natural environment protection.
