Summary
This paper focuses on the resuls of conducting a seven-year real experiment that is still ongoing and in the course of which we have faced many challenges. The key points in the construction of an agricultural holding, whose main activity is the production of quality bee products, have been discussed. The article compares the two main types of farming – conventional and organic. Both their strengths and weaknesses have been presented. All data and indicators correspond to real prices and results. The study is entirely focused on practice and aims to show young people in Bulgaria that they can make a career and develop in their native places, instead of seeking livelihood in large cities or abroad.
