Despite cold weather, people of Vratsa are preparing for agricultural work, with onion planting already underway. Due to the weather conditions, the price of planting materials like Bulgarian arpadzhik is low, while Dutch onions are more expensive. Spring garlic is available at high prices, ranging from BGN 8 to 15 per kilogram, with the cheapest being balochka at 2.50 per kilogram. Water onion, the most expensive planting material, has not yet appeared on stands as it has not been sown yet.
