The traps showed very high efficiency in both cases of high and low population level of the pest. Significant catches of T. hirta were recorded in Dryanovo, Karnobat, Knezha, Kyustendil, Petrich and Plovdiv. As a whole the beetles appeared in the very end of March – beginning of April and reached their peak flight in the second half of April – beginning of May; catches were recorded up to the middle of July.

Petrovska*, V. Valkova Maize Research Institute, 5835 Knezha, Bulgaria (Manuscript received 14 May 2018; accepted for publication 14 September 2018) Abstract. The article presents the biological and morphological parameters of the new grain maize hybrid from middle early group. The hybrid is acknowledged in 2017, after three years of testing in the territorial station at Executive Agency of Variety Testing, Field Inspection and Seed Control (EAVTFISC) with standard American hybrid P 9494 and Knezha 435, a widespread Bulgarian hybrid. During the period of testing under conditions without irrigation in the experimental field of the Maize Research Institute – town of Knezha the three years average of the new hybrid exceeded the standard P 9494 by 7.4%, and Knezha 435 by 8.6%. In the ecological network of the country in 2011, under conditions without irrigation, the hybrid produced grain yield 2.6% above the foreign and 4.7% above the Bulgarian standard. In 2016 at EAVTFISC the Knezha 461 maize hybrid exceeded by average grain yield the P9494 standard by 1.5%. The testing was conducted at four points under non-irrigated conditions. The moisture content in the harvesting time is near to that of P9494 and lower than the moisture of Knezha 435.

    Annex REPORT FOR 2019 UNDER THE “HEALTH CARE” PRIORITY of the NATIONAL ROMA INTEGRATION STRATEGY OF THE REPUBLIC OF BULGARIA 2012 - 2020 Operational objective: A national monitoring progress report has been prepared for implementation of Measure 1.1.2. “Performing obstetric and gynaecological examinations with mobile offices in settlements with compact Roma population”. During the period 01.07—20.11.2019, a total of 2,261 prophylactic medical examinations were carried out with the four mobile gynaecological offices to uninsured persons of Roma origin and to persons with difficult access to medical facilities, as 951 women were diagnosed with diseases. The implementation of the activity for each Regional Health Inspectorate is in accordance with an order of the Minister of Health to carry out not less than 500 examinations with each mobile gynaecological office. Financial resources of BGN 12,500 were allocated for each mobile unit, totalling BGN 50,000 for the four units. During the reporting period, the mobile gynecological offices were divided into four areas: Varna (the city of Varna, the village of Kamenar, the town of Ignatievo, the village of Staro Oryahovo, the village of Sindel, the village of Dubravino, the town of Provadia, the town of Devnya, the town of Suvorovo, the village of Chernevo, the town of Valchi Dol); Silistra (Tutrakan Municipality– the town of Tutrakan, the village of Tsar Samuel, the village of Nova Cherna, the village of Staro Selo, the village of Belitsa, the village of Preslavtsi, the village of Tarnovtsi,

Transnational methodology and models will be defined and implemented for flood risk assessment T and mapping. This results in proposals for flood mitigation measures, adjustments of spatial development plans, assessment tools for economic development in flood plains and raised aware- ness of flood risk of stakeholders, politicians, planners and the public. Assets at risk like industry, power stations and supply in- frastructure will play a key role in the project. anube Floodrisk provide hazard and risk map along the Dan- D ube at large scale. Spatial planning is very complex, regard- ing either its object: the flood risk management project and its environment (ecosystems, landscapes, socio-economics, etc.), or its process, which implies many actors, with different world’s representation and related interests, and who are individually attached to a specific territory. Spatial planning is nowadays an extremely sensitive issue, especially in Danube Catchment, where high population densities within some critical areas, harbors, old traditional settlements, and complex political influences and rela- tions, lead to a situation of permanent disputes regarding the use and destiny of lands.
