Abstract

Food security has become a more pressing issue for all the governmentst of the world who are forced to face a growing populations worldwide. But when discussing about the notion of food security one of the main issues addressed is that of food consumption. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to present the evolution of the main indicators related to food consumption in Romania and to make a brief analysis of this problem. To achieve this we used a number of indicators, such as average annual consumption per capita, average daily food consumption per person, the average annual production per capita for the main agricultural products, the average monthly consumption for the main food products. Following our analysis results led to the conclusion that besides a few exceptions, Roma nia has now and had during the entire period analyzed the production capacity necessary to cover the average annual consumption per capita from it’s own average annual production and therefore, to ensure it’s own food security.
