Abstract: The paper analyzes the post-accesion effcects of Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) measures for enhancing competitiveness in the cereal sector in Romania, in the period 2007–2016. The competitiveness of the European cereal market is at the core of debates in the context of the Common Agricultural Policy reforms, trade liberalization and EU enlargement. The most recent CAP reforms in particular have increased the awareness for a competitive agriculture in the European Union. Competitiveness improvement in agriculture is a priority, as in most EU member states with modern agriculture, the importance of industry, trade and services increased in the rural areas. In order to best capture this phenomenon, we have in view competitiveness measurement by approaching the competitive advantage from empirical perspective, presenting the main indicators used in the literature, meant to reveal the complex competitiveness phenomenon. The analysis of national competitiveness for the cereal market will be made in relation to factor intensity: in natural resources, labour, capital and technology. The results lead to certain conclusions referring to the effects of competitive growth measures under CAP on the cereal chain in Romania.
