Agrarian Enterprises – A New Manifestation of Social Farming
Summary:
The importance of the social-economic sector has increased regarding both the European and the national economy. Its future development and improvement is among the priorities of the EU’s common policy. Some aspects of the social economy which are related to the characterisation of the concept of social enterprise, its regulations and conditions for its functioning represent a topic for discussion and are a subject of scientific interest in this paper.
The study focuses on the possibility of combining some of the features of social enterprises with those of conventional farms. As a result, a model has been developed for the operation of socially-oriented agrarian enterprises in Bulgaria.
