Bulgaria continues to be a significant factor in the international grain market and occupies the prestigious 11th place in the world in wheat exports to over 30 countries in 2021
Wheat accounts for 20% of Bulgaria's total agricultural exports. This was stated in the town of Tervel by the Minister of Agriculture Ivan Ivanov at the opening of the festival "White Harvest - for the Earth, Dobrudzha and bread".

"This year we expect the average wheat yield for the country to be close to last year's. According to expert estimates, based on a survey of the current state of cereals, we expect an extremely good harvest, which will be more than enough to provide the necessary quantities for domestic consumption and export," the Agriculture Minister said.
