Abstract:
Romania is one of the European Union countries with important resources for agriculture, occupying the
6th place in the EU in terms of utilised agricultural area but the agrarian structure is not adapted to the EU
developed countries. Unlike other fields of activity, in agriculture a number of specific factors arise, which
determine certain particularities of the use of the material assets, of the means of production and of the labor
force. In the technological process in agriculture there is a combination of three important factors: natural
factors (the land), the human factors and material factors. In order to achieve a superior economic performance,
it is necessary for the farms to effectively manage these factors.
The general objective of the research consists in analyzing the efficiency of the material assets in
agriculture based on the financial accounting information and identifying the factors that influence the
performance in agriculture in order to use the resources effectively.
In this article it is developed a synthetic theoretical framework regarding the essential features of the
Romanian agriculture, the land and fixed assets efficiency, a large case study regarding the indicators of
evaluation and measurement of the efficiency of the material assets in agriculture.
