Abstract:

As part of the research on sustainable development in the present paper, the methodology used was complex, including instruments and methods specific to social, economic and statistical studies. In the paper I described the methodological approach of the sustainable development assessment starting from the concept, purpose, stages and structure of the research to the statistical methods and indicators used. Within this paper, we aim to identify and design the necessary measures to improve the organization of organic farms so as to eliminate the technical and economic risks to which they are exposed. In our approach to identifying these measures, we have carried out comparative analyses between the holdings taken as case studies, both in terms of organization and efficiency. Based on these analyses, we designed measures to be implemented within the three identified organizational models so as to ensure greater efficiency in organic farming. In the work, we aim to compare the advantages and disadvantages of the organization of the four analysed farms, starting from the analysed subsystems of management. We have transposed these conclusions into a SWOT analysis that integrates the positive, negative, opportunities and risks to which organic holdings have been organically exposed.
