  17. Farmland market • Factors: • Lower production of wheat in the USA, the EU and in Russia in 2018 • Higher world prices for wheat, corn, rape seed and barley • Higher yield in Bulgaria in 2018 from rape seed with 30% and lower from wheat with 10% • Expected higher yields in Bulgaria from sunflower and from corn • The oil price has risen with over 50% and it would increase the demand for rape seed and corn for biofuel production • Forecast: • The world grain stores in 2019 – 2.7% lower • World grain and oil seed prices would rise with 3-4%, except for the sunflower • Increased demand for farmland purchases from investors and farmers • Rents increase Page 17

  18. CAP 2021 - 2027 European Commission proposals: • Total EU budget - 1.28 trillion € (1.03 € for 2014-2020) • Increased budget payment from 1% to 1.11% of the GDP of any of the 27 countries • CAP budget reduction with 4.1% up to 365 billion € - 286.2 billion € for direct payments and 78.8 billion € for the AFRD • Increased share of the national financing for the Rural Development (RD) with 10% • The direct payments per ha in BG would shrink with 0.79% (1.6 BGN/ha) • Ceiling for direct payments up to 60 000 € (now it is 150 000 €). For the payments between60 000 and 75 000 € the subsidy would be cut by 25%, in the range 75 000 - 90 000 € the decrease would be with 50%, and between 90 000 и 100 000 € - down with 75%. The real ceiling for direct payment for one farmer would be up to 81 250 €. • Whether farming companies subdivide to smaller companies in order to avoid the ceiling for direct payments, would be controlled by the EU-member’s governments • Big part of the RD Program measures would no longer be financed for free, instead would be replaced with low interest loans or guarantees • Till May 2019 the final EU budget for 2021-2027 should be passed Стр.18
