Greenhouse producers in Bulgaria are threatened by mass bankruptcies. The worsening pandemic situation and rising prices for gas and other energy sources are raising tensions among farmers. Many manufacturers are abandoning their businesses due to the inability to cover their current heating and labor costs. Velin Georgiev, chairman of the National Association of Greenhouse Producers, warned about this.
The association insists on an urgent meeting with Prime Minister Petkov to discuss the possibilities for state aid for fuels used in vegetable production – gas , electricity, pellets, etc.
90% of the costs for the production of greenhouse vegetables are for energy. We insist, first and foremost, on de minimis aid to compensate for natural gas so that production can be completed. Many people have transplanted. They are currently betting on their houses – who has what. I have nothing to bet on, but many of my colleagues have bet everything and will stay on the street tomorrow, “Georgiev told BNR.
Increased prices of fertilizers and plant preparations protection is also hampered by vegetable growers. “And let’s say, if the average price of tomatoes was BGN 1.30, cucumbers BGN 1.80 last year, it means that they should be 4 times more expensive. Can someone buy a cucumber for BGN 6 “, Georgiev asks.
We remind you that despite the problems of the industry in 2021, the production production is growing. Last year, the company produced 40.5 thousand. tons of tomatoes and 48 thousand. tonnes of fruit, which is 2.6% and 6.8% more, respectively, than in the same period of 2020
