How is a commercial agriculture project financed in Romania?

Agricultural credit in Romania combines commercial-bank agri lines with state guarantee funds and EU-funded AFIR grants for farm modernisation. Most projects blend a term facility for structural CAPEX, an equipment loan or lease for machinery and irrigation, and a working-capital line for inputs.
