Alexander Degianski is a farmer from Timi\u0219 County and manages the company Forest and Biomass Romania SA, headquartered in the locality of Giulv\u0103z. The company operates an area of approximately 5,000 hectares of arable land. He has been a member of the Romanian Farmers\u2019 Club since 2019, a period during which he actively participated in institutional representation projects and the managerial training program \u201cEntrepreneur in Agriculture 4.0\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n
During the current mandate, Alexander Degianski will continue the actions initiated and pursued by the National Coordination Council of the Club. He will also follow several specific priorities, such as the continuation of the promotion of Romania\u2019s Integrated Agricultural Policy \u2013 Objective 2035 and supporting the adoption of Digitalization and Agriculture 4.0 in member farms, through training programs and partnerships with agritech solution providers.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The new president will participate in European consultations regarding the multiannual financial framework and the future reform of the Common Agricultural Policy post-2027 and support the \u201cRomanian Product\u201d project, focusing on reducing import dependency, increasing domestic production and processing capacity, among others.<\/p>\n
During the mandate, the Club will launch Series 8 of the \u201cYoung Leaders for Agriculture\u201d program in October 2026 and Series 6 of the \u201cEntrepreneur in Agriculture 4.0\u201d program in November 2026. The selection and launch of the YAS program series, run together with BCR Social Finance IFN S.A., will also continue, supporting young people in rural areas in building viable agricultural businesses, according to the association.<\/p>\n
The new president will also support the Club\u2019s position on European regulations under negotiation, the future reform of the Common Agricultural Policy and the continuation of efforts to identify alternative financing instruments in agriculture.<\/p>\n
\u201cEuropean agriculture is going through a period marked by persistent structural pressures, in which high input costs, geopolitical uncertainty, and budget negotiations for the 2028\u20132034 period require increased institutional coordination between Member States, and the transition of the Common Agricultural Policy post-2027 remains the central stake of these negotiations. I want the Club\u2019s institutional representation projects, at the national and European level, to continue, so that the agricultural sector benefits from greater predictability,\u201d said Alexander Degianski, president of the Romanian Farmers\u2019 Club.<\/p>\n
