Abstract: In agriculture, non-profit management is nowadays at the core of the co-operatives’ integration in the context of both civil and commercial societies. Importing laws for the creation of correspondent structures in emergent countries in the European Union is different to importing know-how in technology. This is why, in the process of generating the law for the creation of the Romanian Chambers of Agriculture, along with the historical evolution and the counterparts in countries like France, Italy or Germany, the specifics of the today’s Romanian economy need all of them taken into consideration. This paper comprises the full description of a hierarchical, mathematical model for the Romanian Chamber of Agriculture (RCA), built and evaluated together with experts gathered through several national conferences organized by the Regional Network of Rural Development (RNRD). This model is assembled with the aim of understanding and quantifying the main risk factors in the optimal design and institutional functioning of the Romanian Chamber of Agriculture and it constitutes one of the most important scientific recommendation for a new legislative project. Results refer to a specific optimal distribution of the members, fiscal policies and particular sources of funding. The method of deriving these findings is following the theory of Analytical Hierarch Processes (AHP).
