The members of the Bulgarian agricultural cooperative ACPS Sokol own land too small to be profitable individually, so merged their land and created the group to be economically competitive. In 2010 Oikocredit, one of the world's largest private investor in cooperatives, fair trade and microfinance, approved an eighth loan of EUR 250000 to Sokol to buy farming machinery. Sokol now has 23 permanent employees, 33 seasonal workers and offers its members rent for their land that is among the highest in the country. The cooperative was nominated for The Best Co-op of the Year in 2005 and again in 2009. Video produced by: World Report Media

Pig Business investigates the rise of factory pig farming, a system which abuses animals, pollutes the environment, threatens human health through dangerous overuse of antibiotics, and wrecks rural economies and communities. The film shows how this system which was developed in the USA is now being used in eastern Europe from where the pork, often produced below legal animal welfare standards, is exported to other EU countries putting local farmers out of business. The message is simple; the future is our choice.

This propaganda Newsreel presents the collectivisation of the Bulgarian countryside almost as a joyful process. In reality it was brutal and methodically planned. Once the Agrarian leader Nikola Petkov was removed from political life and executed, in 1947 the Communist regime moved swiftly to the countryside. Agriculture was collectivised and peasant rebellions crushed. The Collective farms were created, the TKZS (ТКЗС). Episode from Atanas Kiryakov's "The Camps", 1990

Took me about a year to get 99 farming, and cost me around 20M. I did profit enough from the herbs to pay it off though. Forgot to get rid of the black bars in this vid, they will be gone next vid though.

Tobacco cultivation in southern Bulgaria... Sie leben in abgeschiedenen Bergdörfern im Süden Bulgariens an der Grenze zu Griechenland: die Pomaken. Rund 250.000 Menschen, die zwar Bulgaren - also Slawen - sind und bulgarisch sprechen, aber an Allah glauben. Noch vor 20 Jahren wurden sie von den damals regierenden Kommunisten verfolgt. Ihre muslimischen Namen wurden unter Zwang durch Bulgarische ersetzt; beispielsweise wurde aus dem Pomaken "Süleiman" über Nacht "Alexander". Die Pluderhosen und Kopftücher wurden den Frauen vom Leib gerissen, Minderheiten - noch dazu religiöse - durfte es im kommunistischen Bulgarien einfach nicht geben. Viele Muslime wurden damals einfach vertrieben - in die Türkei. Heute leben die Pomaken wieder so wie früher. Die Frauen tragen ihre Tracht, heiraten früh, gehorchen ihren Männern und trinken keinen Alkohol. Die Männer nehmen es damit nicht so genau. Doch das soll sich ändern: Islam-Stiftungen von weiter östlich, aus Syrien und den arabischen Emiraten, strömen in die bulgarische Bergregion, bauen neue Moscheen und Koranschulen für die Pomaken und versuchen so, die in ihren Augen etwas lax gewordenen Glaubensbrüder und -schwestern wieder zurück zum wahren Islam zu führen. Der Film hat die Pomaken in der bulgarischen Bergkette der Rhodopen besucht, ihre archaischen Bräuche und ihr hartes Leben porträtiert.

Fiamma's Kitchen on BTV (Bulgarian Television, Channel 2), 8 o'clock news, 17 July 2008. The first organic-biodynamic company in Bulgaria producing fresh vegetables and jars. Interview to Dragomir Matein. Text of the interview: Journalist: In Bulgaria, finally, we have the first production of organic grapes and vegetables. The first production ever of organic fruits and vegetables will be released near the village of Izvorovo, near Harmanlii. On this experimental field we meet Dragomir Matein, where he's growing hundrep percent organic tomatoes, peppers and aubergines. There is no use of chemicals, fertilizers and herbicides. Illnesses are cured by natural remedies. Dragomir: Biodynamic principles are applied and one uses nettle, camomile and/or dandelion teas. This is the way we help our plants. Journalist: The cost of production of peppers is very high compared to the standard ones. Despite that, there is a market for such products. Drago: You will not find our product on the market, as they are niche products. Journalist: the typical buyers for this kind of product are top restaurants in Sofia. The cost of organic table grapes could reach the price of 7 leva per Kilo in such establishments. 7 leva per decare [35 euros per hectare] is the subsidy that organic producers receive , which is obviouly not enough. Drago: 7 leva is not enough. For instance, if you go to Sofia airport, with that money you would have coffee and a coke, and that is ridiculous. The government ...
