The Bulgarian Food Safety and Agriculture Organization, along with fruit producers, is declaring the black goldfish an economically important pest by the end of the month. This pest, which affects stone fruit species and can be harmful for eight months, is causing significant damage and has not been identified officially until now. The situation is worsening without preventive measures, with many gardens being destroyed, particularly in regions such as Sliven, Burgas, Haskovo, Dimitrovgrad, and Ruse. The lack of functionality in the system intended to identify and prevent such problems is concerning. A working group, including the Bulgarian Food Safety Agency and the Ministry of Agriculture, will develop an action protocol and prevention program to address this serious issue and provide financial resources to affected producers.
