It is quite obvious that organic food is much more expensive than other foods. For most people, these prices are simply unthinkable and they prefer to continue consuming the same food as before. In other words - even if you want to eat well, the price is the one that reminds you that it can't happen.
But in fact, it is quite normal for any product with the inscription "bio" to have a drastically higher price. There is an explanation - if we talk about marketing and advertising, when something is new, unknown and better than other products, it is undoubtedly more expensive. If we look at it from the point of view of production, we can again find a completely logical explanation of things, although we do not want that to be the case.
Organic food requires a different preparation than other products, it takes more time to produce. In fact, in order to produce a product when it is labeled "organic", this means that there are no pesticides in the composition. This leads to the need to look for other options to get rid of producers of different types of pests. Of course, the other option will be more expensive.
When it comes to raising animals, it matters how many animals are kept in a certain area - there is a requirement that gives a certain number of animals. This also means lower productivity - higher prices.
Another factor in the rise in price of organic food is time and nature in general and its "moods". Unlike all other producers, organic food producers are extremely dependent on nature and its changes.
The Bulgarian market is small and a very limited quantity can be offered - this puts extra money on the price. The reason is that when a product is produced, advertising, transport, organization of production, everything that is needed to be delivered to the store and sold is reflected in the final price. In Bulgaria the goods are less, respectively the amount is divided into less and the product becomes more expensive.
