The conditions of multifunctionnality in the research and development of the mountain areas

Abstract

In our days, it is scientifically well known that the development of the mountain areas do not depend only from the utilization of general econometric models and the analysis of their results, but mostly from the deep understanding of the particularities and the potentialities in a local level. In other words, the understanding of the multifunctional possibilities of the agricultural mountain space may lead us to combine the situation and the needs of the space with the actual needs and life conditions of the people.
