Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to identify the problems that the small and medium-sized producers from the vegetable farming sector are facing, highlighting their opinions in order to develop solutions/models for the efficient capitalization of vegetable production. On this line, ICEADR conducted a survey addressed to vegetable producers from Romania. 180 questionnaires were applied in 6 representative counties for vegetable production: Dambovita, Calarasi, Galati, Ilfov, Dolj and Olt. The conclusions that can be drawn in order to solve up the problems of small farmers are the following : their association/cooperation to have easier access to credits and structural funds, creation of short chains for the sale of fresh vegetables with greater power to eliminate intermediaries and/or processing part of production to increase its capitalization.
