Quality Bulgarian red tomatoes will be offered for 90 stotinki per kilogram on the stock exchange in the village of Ognyanovo in Pazardzhik. The price of cucumbers will also be lower as a protest of producers against the government.
The promotional prices of Bulgarian vegetables are the first action of the producers in our country against the large import of low-quality and many times cheaper vegetables from abroad.
Bulgarian farmers are also dissatisfied with the cut subsidies, which have been reduced 5 times. Under the new rules, producers will be granted 250 euros per decare, not per kilogram of goods produced.
The chairman of the Association of Greenhouse Producers - Krassimir Kyuchukov, told Nova TV that with the revolt the biggest producers in our country want to show how the Bulgarian production is being killed in order to sell the imported ones.
According to Kyuchukov, Bulgarian fruits and vegetables are the safest greens that can be offered to customers in our country, as a product that has traveled 3,000 kilometers does not have the same benefits as a tomato picked hours ago.
In addition to dumping prices, vegetable growers are protesting against the new regulation, which reduces their subsidies.
For 1 decare you give BGN 10,000, and the subsidy is enough to cover the work clothes. On top of that, the retail chains are listening, they want uniformity of the tomatoes, and the Bulgarian producers do not have such machines to pack in the same way as in Poland - the producers say.
The real value per kilogram of quality Bulgarian tomatoes should be between 80-90 stotinki wholesale, but retail chains buy them for no more than 60 stotinki. According to farmers, this is only due to cheap imports, over which there is no control.
Vegetable growers demanded a meeting with Prime Minister Boyko Borissov to ask him if he wanted the Bulgarian nation to eat only low-quality fruits and vegetables. Strict control over imported products will also be demanded before the Prime Minister.
Otherwise, protests will continue, with producers saying they are ready to dump their produce on the streets.
