Governments constantly try to improve the macroeconomic environment for the business so that the country should attract good investment and it should grow economically. It means the policies of the government directly effects the businesses. Government policies may be designed to provide the economic freedom or it may be strict to bind the firms into different rules and regulations. However, studies have empirically confirmed that economic freedom positively leads towards firm’s growth, and ultimately, to firm’s stability. Moreover, studies have also found the negative correlation between economic freedom and business activity. Still, insignificant attention has been given to the correlation between economic freedom and the actual insolvency. Thus, this study will try to bridge this gap in two ways. Firstly, it will help theoretically by providing the insights into the relation between economic freedom and firms’ insolvency in different economies of Europe including developing and developed economies. Secondly, it will help practically the economic policy makers to determine the influence of economic freedom on number of firms’ insolvency

The present research evaluates the sustainability of EU agricultural sector in relation to Common Agricultural Policy by using a custom-developed analytical framework, based on relevant indicators: gross domestic product in rural areas (GDP), gross value added (GVA), GVA for agriculture, direct payments (DP), agricultural factor income (AFI), agriculture employment rate (AER), rural employment rate (RER), degree of rural poverty (DRP), agricultural entrepreneurial income (AEI), agriculture research and development investments (ARD), labour productivity in agriculture (LPA), total factor productivity (TFP), cereal crop yield (CCY), fertilizers use (FU), CO2 emissions and ammonia emissions (EA). The EA are mostly related to CCY (+0.47%), DP (+0.45%), ARD (+0.49%), AFI (-0.59%) and GDP (-0.52%). The CO2 emissions are influenced mostly by TFP (+2.82%), RER (+2.49%), DRP (+0.53%) and EA (+0.46%). The FU most significant feature importance weights are CCY (0.79%), CO2 (0.21%) and TFP (0.19%). The GVA model is related mostly to RER (+1.30%), GVA Agriculture (+0.67%), AER (-0.35%) and FU (+0.31%). The ARD most significant feature importance weights are GVA (0.23), DP (0.16) and GVA agriculture (0.15). The results revealed excellent performance metrics.

Romanian agriculture enjoys one of the highest land allocations, with at the level of 2013 the land fund of Romania being made up of about 14.61 million ha of agricultural land (61,30% of the country's surface), each resident returning an area of 0.68 ha of agricultural land and 0,43 ha of arable land. Most of the existing arable land is grown mainly with so-called large crops, namely wheat and maize. In order to emphasize the importance of one of the two crops mentioned, wheat, and of the technological tools used to achieve it on Romania's economy, an analysis of the impact it has on the GDP per capita is carried out. For this purpose, the correlation between the variables considered in an econometric model was determined as follows: Gross domestic product per capita - dependency variable, gross value of wheat production, average wheat yield per hectare and agricultural area actually irrigated. The results obtained show that there is a strong link between the results of agricultural land work and the macroeconomic indicator of gross domestic product per capita.

The scientific research reflected in this investigation had the purpose to study the importance of agricultural production and the variation of bacterial microflora on the quality of certain categories of poultry meat in different commercial conditions. In the scientific paper were analysed the indices of the volume of agricultural production in different categories of households during the last period and highlighted the aspects of its increase and decrease. In the same time, by laboratory microbiological methods were evaluated the results of the saprophytic and pathogenic microflora of three categories of poultry meat under various commercialization conditions. The results of the study confirmed that all categories of commercialized poultry meat showed an insignificant number of coccic microorganisms both in the surface layers and in the depth of the meat, which corresponds with the commercialization requirements and is acceptable in human food.

The paper aims to analyze the main characteristics of the Romanian labour resources between 1999 and 2019 by using the statistic database collected in territorial profile. We analyzed the civil employment population based on their territorial distribution and we correlate the results with the main economical national activities. The research proved a polarization of human resources around the important cities, but also a distribution of civil employment population in the counties from central and west part of the country where in the last two decades developed more economic branches like construction and manufacturing industries. By observing the development pattern for 1999-2019 period we can say that Romania is facing many challenges like the decrease of labour resources due to reallocation to other counties or external migration. However we also observed that the industry, constructions and commerce act as polarizing sectors for the labour force, to the detriment of agricultural activities, so the future strategies have to be oriented towards the development of business in these fields.

Multifunctional agriculture is a continuation of the meaning of diversification. It is a way of undertaking an agricultural endeavor, combining different practices from different sectors. The idea behind such an approach is to use the typical resources of agricultural holdings to achieve results related to other sectors. Multifunctionality can refer to different functions. It has been adopted in agriculture as a paradigm of sustainable agricultural practices to achieve better rural development. Multifunctional agriculture can be an important factor in the economic development of both farmers and rural areas. The aim of the study is to analyze the economic, social and environmental effects of the application of multifunctional agriculture. The research is based on good practices of different farms in Bulgaria. The results show that multifunctional agriculture stabilizes the economic condition of agricultural holdings and contributes to the development of the rural areas in which they are located.
