"We´re back on the European markets”, says Tanja Betscheva from Bulgaria´s association of producer markets with confidence. Following several difficult years of transformation in Bulgarian agriculture, the production of tomatoes, cucumbers, berries, plums and cherries is rapidly growing again. “A number of permanent crops have been replanted and are now producing high yields”, says Betscheva. An increasing number of buyers from England and Russia are showing renewed interest in the exceptional quality of aromatic beefsteak tomatoes and other products from Bulgaria. With 240 days of sunshine each year, the Country offers ideal conditions for growing top quality produce.
