Tridge summary
"We managed to sow the canola on time, we had enough rain, the crop was able to germinate and develop. Now we have very well planted crops, a total of 1,200 decares," shared Neli Stoyanova, chairman of the agricultural cooperative "Vazrazhdane" in the village of Paskalevo. The expectation is that the plants will enter the necessary phase and be able to overwinter. Vote: What will lead to greater transparency in the allocation of budgets by sector? Unfortunately, there are few farmers from the Dobrichka region who can boast of successful sowing and good condition of the oil crop at the moment. In recent years, many of them have excluded canola from their farms, and in the fall they rely mainly on wheat and barley. Rapeseed is risky, capricious and in the conditions of Dobrudja it is becoming increasingly difficult to grow it. One of the main reasons is the drought during the summer months and the lack of soil moisture at the time of sowing. The seeds remain in the soil and do not have the opportunity to germinate and sprout.
