The economic pyramid of Pine and Gilmore is useful to illustrate the way that businesses together with D.O. wine consortia have changed the way of marketing typical temitonial products. While in the last two decades the focus of wine marketing has been based mainly on the “intrinsic” quality of the wines (taste, smell, organoleptic characteristics, etc.) [4], now tenitonal products have to be promoted and marketed giving a unique experience regarding the whole sensorial asset of the product [5]. Some technical aspects emerge: i) pricing policies take into account the capacity of the consumers to pay for living this unique expenence in the local temitory; ii) A relevant pillar of this approach regards the differences between services and experiences (before their work the concept of experience was included in the service concept). Firstly services are tailored to meet the individual consumer requirements. Experience is created through different stimulation and can not be segmented. Secondly in the concept of services consumers are considered as clients, while in the experience concept they are viewed as guests. Thirdly the action of giving a service finishes with the consumption, whilst experience continues in the memory of the consumers.

Becomes conspicuous the share growth of direct expenses in the maximum version, which demonstrates the fact that the agricultural producer uses inputs of high quality with higher prices, but which are correlated with the increase of production and of received incomes. In the direct expenses were included the material expenses: seed expenses (30.37%, version A and 44%, version B), chemical fertilizers (29.95%, version A and 22.19 %, version B) pesticides (10.88 %, version A and 7.34%, version B) and other direct material expenses (14.28%, version A and 12.55%, version B), expenses with works and services rendered by third parties with values of 2-3% in total of direct expenses, expenses with mechanical and manual labour (11.79%, version A and 9.82%, version B), expenses with crop insurance (1.01%, version A and 2.84%, version B). Common expenses are composed of administrative expenses, amortization and version from 87.86% direct expenses per crop and 12.13 % common expenses per farm, that are for the early potato crop.

To reduce the cost the producer must look and find reserves to reduce consumption of inputs, to act simultaneously on all factors of production in all phases of economic activity to apply possible measures for reduction on the costs according with the competition requirements imposed by the market. The reduction of production cost should not take place without negative influences on the quality of agricultural products, but rather, simultaneously must VoL11, Isse 2.2011 >ISONT 1 PALA)

In the process of the production one may remark a diminution of the utilization level of the production means, the principal reasons are: the structural modification of the production branches in favour of those ones with a bigger capacity of the production means; it is being increased the cost of the production means in the production buildings that have a long tenn of exploitation; the fixed means are not always satisfied completely with working capital.

The average marketing margins accomplished by the traders were 0.28 €/kg. The marketing margins were also significantly high at the level of wholesalers, and in an average amount they were approximately 0.26 €/kg. The marketing margins were lowest at farmer level, which indicated that the marketing costs were also on the lowest level.

Typically, organizations don’t have their own sources of borrowing and therefore go to creditors. This is how they get credit resources to further offer loans to its members. The bank loans are always secured, however almost all associations loans are unsecured. The average loan has increased in recent years to some extent, but still is small [3]

The Evolution of Goods Transport by Ownership. Public sector is still important in railways transport, petroleum pipe-lines and air transport and private sector is stronger in goods transportation on roads, inland waterways and seawater ways (Table 4).The largest amounts of goods are transported on roads, representing 69.10 % of total transported goods. Also, about 65.60 % of goods are transported on roads by private companies. Alaambhor nf NMlannc nf Cantwoywanro and

The Number of Railways in Operation was by 5 % lower in 2008 in comparison with 1990, but more efforts were made to electnify new railways so that in 2008, their number was by 7.9 % higher than 18 years ago. At present, about 36.8 % of railways ae electrified in Romania compared to 32.4 % in 1990. However, the bad infrastructure, the high costs of repairs and modemization have determined the abandon of some railways (Table 6).

The Amount of Goods Transported on Roads has become more important because of higher speed provided by high performance and higher capacity vehicles. In 2008, for example, about 364,605 thou tonnes were transported on roads, by 2.2 % more than in the previous year. While the national transport has increased by 2.6 %, intemational transport declined by 5 % due to the reduced Romanian goods export. Another remark is the fact that both goods import and export have declined, while transit transport has become 7.8 times better developed. About 95.2 % of total road transport is represented by national transport (Table 8).

Meat Production in terms of Liveweight of Slaughtered Animals. The meat production was 1,659 thousand tons in 2003 and 1,503 thousand tones in 2007, that is by 9.41 % less than in the first year of study. This was due to the reduced number of slaughtered animals but also of te diminished average live weight of animals at slaughter. The general trend is a consequence of the decline registered by liveweight of slaughtered animals in the analysed period. In 2007, meat production in temns of live weight was by 11.91 % lowerin case of cattle, by 9.58 % lower in case of pigs, by 18.52 % lower in case of sheep and goats and by 3.26 % lower in case of poultry in comparison to the performance recorded in the year 2003 (Table 3). Average Liveweight at’ slaughter. Mm general, during the analysed penod, the average liveweight of slaughtered animals regietered a decline, except poultry. In case of both fattened adult and youg cattle the average liveweight was 275 kg per head in the year 2007 compared to 321 ko/head in the year 2003. This figure is small showing a more extensive fattening technology than an intensive one practiced in farms and taking into consideration that the best live weight for assuring a high quality carcass in over 400 kg/head, Romanian cattle breeders have stil to do more in order to keep pace with farming requirements in the EU states. In case of pigs, the average live weight at slaughter decreased to 108 ko/head in 2007 compared to 111 kg/head in 2000. However, it could be considered a good liveweight at slaughter in connection to fat layer and carcass quality and consumer preference for lean meat. The average live weight at slaughter for sheep and goats was 18 kg/head in 2007 compared to 23 kg in 2003 (Table 2).

Livestock Evolution. In the year 2003, the livestock consisted of 2,897 thousand cattle, 5,145 thousand pigs, 8,125 thousand sheep and goats and 76,616 thousand poultry. While cattle stock has registered a reduced number, all the other species have recorded a recover, taking into account their importance in the human life and economy. In 2007, the cattle stock accounted for 2,819 thousand heads, being by 2.70 % less than in the year 2000. The pig number _ accounted for 6,563 thousand heads, by 27.56 % more than in the year 2003, obviously due to the traditional consumption of this sort of meat in Romania. The number of sheep and goat increased by 14.88 % compared to the year 2000, reaching 9,334 thousand heads, taking into account the importance of these species as milk and meat source. Poultry stock has also registered an increasing trend, accounting for 82,036 thousand heads in 2007, being by 7.07 % higher than in 2000 (Table 1).

Table 4. Meat and Meat Preparations ( thousand tones)

Table 7. Average Producer's Price ( Lei/Kg Live Weight) However, even though prices per kg live weight registered an increase, they are still at avery low level from farmers’ point of view, rarely being able to cover production costs. The reduced price per kg of cattle live weight is justified by the diminished beef demand and also the farmers’ orientation mainly to milk production or dual purpose breeds. Unfortunately, in Romania there are no catile breeds for meat production.

Average Price per Kilogram Live Weight at purchasing has registered a slight increase in the analyzed period in case of all species, except sheep and goats. The highest average sale price was Lei 3.55 per kg live weight in the year 2007 for pigs, by 7.57 % higher than in the year 2003. The price for sheep and goat kilogram live weight was Lei 3,52 in 2007, by 25.74 % less than in 2003. The poultry price wes Lei 3.32 per kg live weight by 14.48 % higher than in 2003. Finally, the lowest price was Lei 2.98 per kg of fattened cattle, despite that in the year 2007, it was by 24.68 % higher than in the year 2003 ( Table 7).

Imported. beef amount reached 12.9 thousand tones in 2007, being 3.79 times higher than in 2003, supporting domestic low offer in order to cover better consumer’ s needs. Pork import accounted for 187.3 thousand tones in 2007, being by 90.73 % higher than in 2003. Also, an important amount of poultry meat wes imported. In 2007, it accounted for 138.3 thousand tones, by 50.82 % higher than in the year 2003 (Table 9). Meat Export Value accounted for Furo

Table 10.Meat Export Value (FOB-Euro Million)

Meat Consumption is relatively small in Romania compared to other EU countries and this is due, on one side, to the wm corresponding demand/offer ratio and, on the other side, to the high meat price and low purchasing power of many categories of the population. The average yearly consumption per inhabitant has decreased from 64 kg in the year 2003 to 62 kg in the year 2007 (Table Taoahla 12 Arvorno Nast Cana nmbhnan 590 in the year 2007. The increased import value compared to export value reflects a lack of competitiveness of the Romanian meat on the extemal market, an uncoresponding demand/offer ratio. This situation has a deep negative impact upon local producers (Table 12). 590 in the year 2007. The increased import value compared to export value reflects a lack of competitiveness of the Romanian meat on the extemal market, an uncorresponding demand/offer ratio. This situation has a deep negative impact upon local producers (Table 12).

Meat Trade Balance. Taking into account the evolution of export and import, meat trade balance has recorded a deficit whose value has continuously increased from Euro Million 9 in the year 2003 to Euro Million Meat Import Value . Compared to meat export value, meat import value is very high. In 2007, the value of imported meat was Euro Million 605, being by 18.33 times higher than in the year 2003 and 11 times higher compared to the value of meat export. The highest share in meat import value belongs to meat and edible offal, 91.40 % in 2007 (Table 11).
