Bulgaria with Record Production of Wheat and Barley in 16 Years
|
Bulgaria's Minister of Agriculture and Foods Valeri Tzvetanov announced Tuesday the wheat and barley production in 2008 was a record for the last sixteen years.
According to the Ministry's data, the last time the country had average wheat and barley yield of over 400 kg per decare was in 1991.
Tzvetanov said the record production was the result of two major factors: the proper techniques applied by the farmers, and the favorable weather conditions during the last several months.
A total of 10 073 924 decares of wheat have already been harvested, which is 97,91% of the total planted wheat (10 301 776 decares).
The wheat production so far is 4 408 107 tons, which means an average yield of 438 kg per decare. The highest yields are in Bulgaria's northeast and northern districts - Dobrich - 536 kg per decare, Silistra - 507 kg per decare, Razgrad - 472 kg per decare, Pleven - 458 kg per decare, Sliven - 459 kg per decare, Vratsa and Varna - 448 kg per decare.
The barley yield is at 901 707 tons from a total of 2 253 633 decares.
The harvesting of the most popular energy plant in Bulgaria, which is grown by more and more farmers, rapeseed has almost been completed. The total yield of rapeseed stands at 233 473 tons from a total of 937 000 decares. Thus, the average per decare yield is 266 kg.
According to Bulgaria's Deputy Agriculture Minister Svetla Bachvarova, the country might be able to export up to 2 000 000 tons of grain in 2008.
Between July 1 and August 3, 2008, Bulgaria has exported a total of 110 000 tons of wheat at an average price of BGN 350 per ton, and 140 000 tons of barley at an average price of BGN 337 per ton.
Most of the grain exported already was destined for Saudi Arabia (102 000 tons), Libya (13 000 tons), and Egypt (12 000 tons).
