Abstract: The aim of the measures in Axis 1 in the National Rural Development Programme 2007-2013 was the market orientation of semi-subsistence farms. This was possible by using measures 111, 141, 142, 143. Beneficiaries could simultaneously access all these measures in order to achieve a competitive market. By accessing the semisubsistence measures, the beneficiaries could modernize and restructure small farms and could also make technical investments in the agricultural holdings they own in order to sell to the market. The level of access was pretty low compared to what it was proposed in the National Rural Development Programme 2007-2013, but despite the low degree of absorption there were some satisfactory results for semi–subsistence farms. In this research I did a secondary analysis of data to provide information about the current situation of accessing measures under Axis 1 and the importance of semi -subsistence farms and markets for the Romanian economy. The results could help make a better future planning and respond to the needs traced by analyzing the measures of market orientation of semi-subsistence farms.
