Environmental Legislation, Multilateral Relations and Funding Opportunities
This paper provides a detailed picture of the existing legislation of agricultural land use by entities who do not own it in Bulgaria and makes specific suggestions to improve it, aiming at creating a legislative framework enhancing productivity and sustainability.
The study is briefly considering the historical and economic factors for the development of the case law in line with the legal framework in thiscontext. Attention is also paid to the goals of the European Union (EU) to provide properconditions for technologicalization of agricultural production, investment in irrigation and other equipment, obtaining external financing, alongside with ensuring profitable sale of production. Undisputedly there is a need to strike a balance between the interests of private land owners and the broader public, by creating a legal basis (through legal and administrative measures) governing the actual use and cultivation of agricultural land.The paper further examines and discusses a number of on-going issues, i.e. the legal status of existing agricultural cooperatives; the consolidation of agricultural land by creating land use plots;the so called “white spots” of undeclared land; the options of leasehold versus renting of agricultural landand its legal framework.
The conclusion contains a general analysis of the proposals for changes in the regulatory environmentin the observed area to achieve more efficient and sustainable use of agricultural land. The contribution of the report is to show the variety of models of land use in agriculture and their differences, analyzing the actual legal framework and giving concrete proposals for improving it. Comparative method, synthesis and analysis are used while inspecting the area of research.
