The spring is cold, and on the Black Sea coast, as far as the eye can see, the fertile land has passed the harvest season and is fallowing. On the eve of the Spring Festival, the reporter went to Bulgaria to conduct an interview on Sino-Bulgarian agricultural cooperation. "Now that the corn and other crops in the field have been harvested, the farmers' grain is being pulled by trucks to the factory for processing, and the farmers are working without difficulty. Jiang Jingyun, the person in charge of Bulgarian Tianshi Agricultural Feed, who walked with reporters, introduced.
Bulgaria is an important grain producer in south-central Europe.
I vividly remember that in June 2015, the China-CEEC Federation for the Promotion of Agricultural Cooperation was officially established, and the executive agency was located in Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria. Jiang Jingyun seized the opportunity and co-founded Bulgaria Tianshi Agricultural Feed with partners in the suburbs of Dobrich, a city in northeastern Bulgaria, in 2018, the company was officially put into production, and now it is one of the largest feed processing enterprises in Bulgaria.
We source raw materials locally for processing, and the finished products are shipped to China by sea. Feed can be sent directly to the farm for use. Nadia, the general manager of the company, is a Bulgarian and has been to China many times for investigation and research. She led the reporter to the company's factory, where there was a long queue of trucks waiting to be unloaded at the door, and Nina, a local employee in charge of the first quality inspection process, was skillfully operating the remote control for product sampling. After sampling, the raw materials are transported to the silo area and into the feed production process.
The warehouse now has more than 2,000 tons of finished feed products, which will be shipped to the nearby port of Varna, and in 45 days, it will arrive at Huangpu Port in Guangdong, Xiamen Port in Fujian, Tianjin Xingang and other Chinese ports, and then send them to customers' farms. Nadia is familiar with the factory's production capacity and export processes.
We procure wheat, corn, rapeseed meal and other raw materials from the local area, and employ nearly 30 local employees to engage in production ......In Jiang Jingyun's view, Bulgaria's high-quality agricultural production raw materials form a close complementary relationship with China's vast market, and the company he runs has also brought tangible benefits to the local people. Because of this, the company has received the support of the local ** and the people from the beginning of its establishment. ”
Agriculture is one of the key areas of cooperation between China and Bulgaria, and Bulgarian rose products, red wine, yogurt and other products are loved by more and more Chinese consumers. In recent years, the agricultural products of China Insurance have grown rapidly. According to Chinese customs statistics, in 2023, the amount of agricultural products in Bulgaria and China will reach 508.4 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 859%。Bulgaria has become China's largest agricultural partner in Central and Eastern Europe.
"There is a broad space for Bulgarian-Chinese cooperation".Bulgarian Minister of Economy and Industry Bogdan Bogdanov said in an interview that he hopes that more Chinese companies will invest here.
