Abstract

In the oil-bearing rose production, it is accepted to talk about small, medium and large farms, but there is no strictly justified scheme for their differentiation. A classification of the rose-growing farms in Bulgaria according to the utilized agricultural area and the agricultural machinery for mechanization of the technological operations in the oil-bearing rose growing and harvesting is proposed in the article. The differentiation of rose farms allows their farmers to make the correct assessment of the necessary and, at the same time, adequate investment for agricultural tractors and implement to achieve the desired results. Classifying them by type, taking into account the specific nature of the sector, relieves executive authorities in allocating funds to support farms according to their capacity for effective absorption.
