In an open dialogue with citizens, the candidates consistently show that politics must be done with responsibility, responsiveness and commitment to every settlement and to every specific sector.

GERB-SDS acknowledge the undeniable key role of agriculture for the Pazardzhik region. This is a livelihood that not only provides sustenance for thousands of families, but also guarantees food for the Bulgarian table. This is why it is among the main priorities in the coalition's policies.

In this connection, the leader of the list of candidates for MPs Stefan Mirev, together with adv. Dafinka Semerdjieva, Boris Vladov and Veselina Milkova, visited two of the successful agricultural farms in the region. The meetings were attended by the former Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Food Dr. Lozana Vasileva. The talks with producers focused on the challenges facing the sector and the opportunities for its sustainable development, emphasizing that GERB-SDS has the necessary expertise to manage and develop this key industry.

Those working in this field are concerned about the dynamic and turbulent international situation, which has its reflections on the economy as well. One thing is certain – in this situation, our country needs a functioning and stable government. The GERB-SDS coalition is the political force that has brought Bulgaria through not one crisis – economic, migrant, COVID crisis. The fact is that when Bulgaria is governed by people with experience and expertise, then the challenges facing the state are met more easily. GERB-SDS is relying for the umpteenth time on precisely outlined methods with which to improve every single sector of the economy and people's lives. Agriculture is no exception.

The "Bulgaria 2030" governance program offers concrete and working solutions. Among them are measures to increase the added value in agriculture by 30% and transition from raw material exports to high added value production through: achieving full external convergence and equal status for Bulgarian farmers in the EU; reassessment of trade agreements; support for irrigation infrastructure; strategic planning according to agroclimatic conditions; programs for employment, training and retention of labor in the sector.

For access to quality local food, a new approach is planned in tax regimes, implementation of innovations and digitalization, creation of an electronic food traceability system, application of the "One Health" approach and support for direct market access.

In the area of forests, the program includes reform in management, investments in fire prevention systems, national inventory of forest territories, measures for biodiversity conservation and development of hunting economy through a new strategy.
