Price indices, 2020 = 100: a value of 150 means prices 50% above their 2020 average. Letters after a figure come from Eurostat: e = estimated, p = provisional, b = break in series. Changes on a year earlier compare the same quarter of two years and are calculated by Husfarm.

## Fertiliser prices per tonne of nutrient

Eurostat’s 2025 fertiliser prices for Bulgaria are on average about 23% of the median of the other countries, which points to a different unit (such as a price per tonne of product rather than per tonne of nutrient), so Husfarm does not show them. The price index above is not affected.

## Feed prices per tonne

Eurostat’s 2025 feed prices for Bulgaria are on average 2.0 times the median of the other countries, which points to a different unit, so Husfarm does not show them. The price index above is not affected.
