The central bank report says the agricultural yields of farms could increase if, among others, the farms used certain industrial robots, which can now be found in only 1% of the companies in the agri-food sector.
Although Romania has a lot of potential because of its fertile soil, the yields in its agriculture sector are low compared with other European countries.
“An increase in agricultural yields would solve both the problem of availability and of access to food. However, it must be done without harming the future generations in terms of impact on climate change and considering the agricultural trends in Europe and the world,” the central bank report says.
