The article highlights the difficulties Bulgarian farmers face due to low grain yields, especially in corn and sunflower, compared to other EU nations. A significant issue is the lack of irrigation infrastructure, with both Bulgaria and Romania experiencing low productivity per hectare. Historical data indicates a notable decline in Bulgarian corn yields, worsened by climate change and consecutive dry summers. In contrast, countries like Spain, Italy, and Germany maintain high yields due to established irrigation systems. The article urges government ministries to focus on water resource management and irrigation to prevent further agricultural productivity decline.
