Decision Making Patterns of Subsistence Farmers in Bulgaria

Bulgaria began the transformation of its agricultural sector early in the reform process. The chosen path of land reform was radical and aimed at restoring the status quo enjoyed half a century ago. The outcome of this slow and complicated process was a very fragmented structure of land ownership and farming structure dominated by a large number of small private family farms. Reforming land ownership rights to the status of fifty years ago created a dualistic farming structure of individual and commercial farms. Within the category of individual farms, there are a large number of small subsistence farms, most of which belong to elderly people. At the beginning of reform, they were considered as concomitant structures, stemming from pre-reform household plots with limited influence on the formation of the sector. However, with the prolonged land reform, missing land markets and difficult processes of creating the infrastructure of a market economy, it was realised that subsistence farming in Bulgaria was not a temporary phenomenon.
