Speaking at the conference Mediafax Talks about Agriculture, Ciolos said the measure would ease financing.
“There are EU member states, and Romania could join them in 2014, that apply different payments for each region,” Ciolos said, adding that disadvantaged areas might need more funds to support agriculture.
Romania must define its needs to be able to negotiate particulars in the Common Agricultural Policy, the EU commissioner highlighted.
According to Ciolos, Romania should also draw up a long-term agriculture strategy and set targets for the next 10-15 years.
