Abstract: After more that fifteen years of transition, ownership and farming structures of Romanian agriculture are characterized from size point of view by out the coexistence of two farming categories – small size (households) and large size (associations, trading companies), and from efficiency point of view, low productive, being not in concordance with the high economic performance notion met within the European Union’s trading agricultural farms. Starting from these appraisals and taking into consideration the developed European countries’ experiences and results, re-dimension of agricultural farms, as an important task of agricultural policy, it should be considered the dimensioning criteria, optimum size and the increase tendencies demonstrated during the time in the European Union member’ states. The priority objectives in order to achieve performance agriculture in Romania are centred on the concentration of agricultural areas with a view to configurate the efficient agricultural farm which should develop high efficiency agricultural activities. Under these conditions, land market actions, entirely, can offer a wide manifestation framework of the interests which converge towards the increase of agricultural exploitations dimensions.
