Abstract: The objective of the paper is to identify how large is the sector of organic farming in Romania, as part of agro-food system. The research question is: what are the dimensions of organic farming in Romania? In pursuing this, statistical data regarding agricultural areas and livestock under organic farming are gathered and analysed. Results show that organic sector has insignificant weight in agro-food system. However, accelerated growth of indicators shows the high potential of developing organic farming in Romania. The subject is more attractive and of high interest as there are many voices that emphasize the role of the farming in a fast growing population and the challenges that are associated with this process.
