Farmers' union urges action to support agriculture

In an open letter to Prime Minister Rosen Zhelyazkov and the Ministers of Agriculture, Finance and Economy, the Bulgarian Farmers' Union calls for new financial mechanisms to support, revitalise and stimulate Bulgarian agriculture. The appeal is driven by political and economic pressures, as well as climate-related challenges. The union highlights the lack of sustainable policies to create and support a new, young generation of agricultural producers and farmers, which has been identified as a key priority by the European Commission.
