Farmers protested in Varna because of unpaid subsidies. They threaten with civil disobedience and road blocks, if they do not receive their money by March 20, BTV announced.

The protesters arrived with heavy-duty machines in front of the Disbursement agency on Agriculture in the city, in order to submit a protest letter with nearly 100 signatures.

According to one of the participants in the protest - Svilen Radev, the subsidies, which have not been received are about 100 million levs. He added that there is no clarity on when they will be received.

The different conditions, in which we work with our colleagues from the EU, is obvious, five times bigger subsidies, received in advance and even emergently in force majeure circumstances, Vladimir Minev commented.

According to the farmers, the difficult conditions, in which they work doom them to losses and will lead to mass bankruptcies.

The Disbursement agency claims that 94% of the subsidies in the Varna region are paid up. One hundred and eight farmers are being checked up because of a signal for violations. People from the agency add that after the end of the check ups the accurate owners will receive their money.
