Annex REPORT for 2019 UNDER the “HEALTH CARE” PRIORITY of the NATIONAL ROMA INTEGRATION STRATEGY of the REPUBLIC of BULGAR
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,

Zaravetz Culture
THE LADY IN THE OVEN – Mediolana and the Zaravetz Culture Mac Congail The most extraordinary ancient „burial‟ to be discovered in recent years is that of a woman found in a pottery kiln near the Celtic settlement of Ablana (by the village of Krivina, Rousse region) on the Bulgarian Danube. This burial is remarkable for a number of reasons, foremost among them its situation – in a large pottery kiln – symbolic of the thriving barbarian culture which inhabited this region in the Late Iron Age, and also for the nature of the burial – archaeological testimony to the brutal fashion in which this culture was destroyed. ARCHAEOLOGICAL CONTEXT MEDIOLANA Recent discoveries of Celtic archaeological sites and material from the Rousse area (and northeastern Bulgaria in general) have confirmed previous linguistic and numismatic evidence that this area was one of the key Celtic economic and political centers in late Iron Age Thrace. From an economic perspective, the most significant Celtic center on this stretch of the Danube was situated at Mediolana (modern Pirgovo, Rousse region) (see ‘Celtic Settlements in n. Bulgaria’ article). Mediolana was strategically situated near the confluence of the Danube and the Lom river, the latter connecting Mediolana with Celtic settlements in the interior such as Abritu (Razgrad). A vast amount of Celtic archaeological and numismatic material has been discovered in the vicinity of Pirgovo/Mediolana over the past century, including separate hoards of Celtic coins found in 1910, 1938, 1979, and 2008 around the village (see Numismatics section, especially ‘Little Metal Men’ article, with relevant lit.), clearly indicating that Mediolana/Pirgovo was a key Celtic economic and coin production center in the pre- Roman period.

Climatic and Soil Characteristics and Crop Parameters of Optimized Agro-Climatic Regions for Maize
1232 Bulgarian Journal of Agricultural Science, 26 (No 6) 2020, 1232–1246 Climatic and soil characteristics and crop parameters of optimized agro-climatic regions for maize Zornitsa Popova*, Maria Ivanova, Emil Dimitrov, Ivan Varlev Agricultural Academy, Institute of Soil Science, Agrotechnology and Plant Protection “Nikola Poushkarov”, 1331 Sofia, Bulgaria *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Popova, Z., Ivanova, M., Dimitrov, E., & Varlev, I. (2020). Climatic and soil characteristics and crop parameters of optimized agro-climatic regions for maize. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 26 (6), 1232–1246 The objectives of the study are to discuss and provide appropriate climatic and soil characteristics and crop parameters for decision making on maize irrigation relative to five agro-climatic regions in the form of: a) quantiles of inter-annual and inter- regional variability of precipitation and ET0; b).Bulgarian maps with average precipitation and average reference evapotrans- piration ET0; c) Bulgarian soil classes in terms of texture, field capacity, wilting point and total available soil water (mm m-1); d) validated crop ET modelling parameters, as limiting dates of local maize development stages, appropriate crop coefficients Kc and soil water depletion fractions for no stress p. Finally, the conventional maize irrigation depths are compared with that simulated through the validated soil water balance (SWB) WinISAREG model application to identified agro-climatic regions. Considered ET0 and precipitation are the main climate variables that influence crop water requirements for irrigation. However, irrigation requirements are also influenced by soil characteristics, mainly FC, WP and TAW, and crop parameters, as rooting zone depth, validated Kc - coefficients andp – fractions relative to the crop development stages and respective limiting dates.

Biofuels in Bulgaria
Bioenergy Fact Sheet Last Update 2020 Biofuels in Bulgaria OVERVIEW Bulgaria is located in the Eastern section of the Balkan Peninsula. Bulgaria has served as a member of NATO and as a member state within the EU since January 2007. Even after the transition process to a free democracy and market economy took place over 30 years ago, the country is still suffering from chronic political instability, as well as an overall underdeveloped economy. Bulgaria has the lowest GDP per capita out of all Member States within the EU (Table 1). The energy sector in Bulgaria is one of the most important sectors in the country, crucial for the country’s political and economic stability. The government therefore regulates the market in consideration of electric power for private use. Despite the fact that the price of electricity in Bulgaria is the lowest in the EU (due to the low level of income), the general public is overall very sensitive to rising prices. On the other hand, the country’s coal mining industry is currently contributing to the creation of thousands of jobs in specific regions. The total production of primary energy in Bulgaria in 2017 was about 11.7 M toe, which covers around 60% of the country’s total energy consumption (18.9 M toe) while the remaining 40% is derived from importations1. It should be mentioned, however, that Bulgaria’s energy dependence in consideration of imports is lower than that of the average Member States within the EU. The major element of the primary energy mix actually relies on local fuels and brown coal (48.6%) followed by nuclear energy (33.7%), which is also technically considered a local source.

Cross-Border Cooperation in the Danube-Lined Romanian/Bulgarian Border-Space
ISSN 0354-8724 (hard copy) | ISSN 1820-7138 (online) Cross-Border Cooperation in the Danube-Lined Romanian/Bulgarian Border-Space. Geographical Considerations Săgeată RaduA*, Dumitrescu BiancaA, Damian NicoletaA Received: March 2009 | Revised: May 2010 | Accepted: May 2010 Abstract Since a number of transnational issues have been cropping up, the need was felt for the existence of a unitary sys- tem to tackle them. So, the building of some cross-border co-operation structures both at local level (cross-bor- der zones) and at regional level (Euroregions) appeared as highly necessary and desirable. Their typology depends on the intensity and character of cross-border fluxes, the existence of local convergence cores, and of elements of complementariness and homogeneity between the two frontier spaces. The Danube-lined Romanian-Bulgarian frontier represents an axis of discontinuity between two natural regions, each with its own district traits: the Ro- manian Plain in the north and the Pre-Balkan Mountain in the south. As a result, the limitrophe border zone shows particular social and economic characteristics. Although the Danube River has favoured the emergence of an ur- ban area, yet the respective towns do not form a coherent system, the zone itself being extremely rural as a whole. The Romanian-Bulgarian cross-border zone in the Danubian sector features by a sudden variation in transver- sal fluxes, concentrating on certain directions imposed by the pattern of communication routes and the layout of doublet towns. Most fluxes pass through the Giurgiu-Ruse sector, a strong argument in favour of establishing a Euro-region based on the cross-border cooperation between the two towns.
