The effects of Covid-19 pandemic have had numerous economic and social transformations, but also behavioral changes of consumers around the world. These effects were found in the functionality of the agri-food system at the level of each state. A qualitative, empirical analysis of the social and economic impact was used to determine the types of effects on the food system in Romania. Studies show that the main consequences of the pandemic on the agri-food system were found in logistical elements, such as outages, which led to further financial losses, failed transactions, unfulfilled orders or interruptions. The empirical analysis also highlighted changes in the behavioral level of actors in the agri-food markets, changes related to consumption patterns. However, an analysis of the statistical data demonstrates the resilience of the food system to the consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as the adaptation skills of the sector, especially with regard to food producers and consumers. Finally, the paper contains recommendations that shape the food system, indicating actions that could reduce the negative effects of other potential crises.
