Abstract: We must acknowledge that the accession of the European funds represents a problem in Romania. The present article intends to present the main causes of a mediocre absorption of the European funds, the effects of this problem. We also present a series of practical solutions for the benefit both of the contributors and of the authorities. We often hear the questions: Why Poland is able and Romania isn’t? There are multiple causes and we intend to present them in order to be avoided and eliminated. The effects are visible because there is no improvement in the rural areas and it is very difficult to find entities that are profitable in the field of agriculture. We will focus on the approach of the artificial conditions invoked by the control teams when deciding the eligibility of a project in 2007-2013. Thus, we created a questionnaire we sent to 100 entities in Alba County. The results show several cause for the mediocre absorption of funds in Romania in 2007-2013. Some of the artificial conditions (real cause) the control teams invoke are: the same administrator for two entities, activities on the same relevant market etc.
