Farm subsidies — who receives the money

State Fund Agriculture is Bulgaria's paying agency for the EU Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). This page shows what the fund does with the money: how much it pays out in each financial year, under which schemes, in which provinces, and to which recipients — legal entities and individuals counted separately.

What you'll find

  • At a glance — total paid, number of recipients (companies and individuals), the share captured by the 100 largest firms, and the largest scheme for the selected financial year.
  • Concentration — how the money splits between the top 10, the top 11–100, the top 101–1000 and every other firm. A small group of recipients takes a disproportionate share of the legal-entity money.
  • By scheme — from basic income support to investment measures, eco-schemes and emergency aid, each linking through to the recipients under it.
  • By province — a map of payments by oblast.
  • By year — amounts paid per financial year (2015–2017, 2021–2025).
  • Largest recipients — a ranking of legal entities, each with its own company profile, so subsidies can be read alongside the same firm's public contracts and EU funds.

The fund's own public procurement is on the State Fund Agriculture page. See also EU funds and public procurement.
