The agricultural land problems in Bulgaria and implementation of the Common Agricultural Policy

I. Yanakieva
Institute of Agricultural Economic, Sofia, Bulgaria

The paper deals with agricultural land problems in Bulgaria that will impede the implementation of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) and the assimilation of financial resources from the EU Structural Funds. Some of the major problems are: the unfinished process of identification of land ownership and division of ownership on the restituted land between heirs, the lack of land property documents for others owners, the lack of experience in subsidizing agriculture, the lack of an adequate administrative capacity for implementation of the CAP and the post-implementation control, delay in creation of the Integrated System for Administrative Control, etc.

Keywords: Common Agricultural Policy, land problems, land identification, subsidies, land reform, land consolidation
