AS compared with the period
1909-1912. Bulgaria's exportable
surplus of grains in recent years
has been drastically reduced. To
offset such losses. Bulgaria had
developed intensive cultivation of
the soil. and as a result has aug
mented her exports of tobacco.
fruits. and oilseeds.
Cereals still are Bulgaria's most
important crop, and with tobacco.
eggs, poultry and fruits. comprise
her chief exports. Mineral re-
sources and industries are unim-
portant.
. At present, Bulgaria is develop
ing plans to increase production
through large scale irrigation,
more use of fertilizers. and better
farm implements. but achievement
of these objectives may have to
wait until the war is over.
CONCENTRATION OF CROPS
The trend is toward greater
concentration on industrial crops,
including oilseeds. Limitation on
domestic output of feedstuffs def
nitely restricts expansion of pro-
duction of livestock and animal
products. which are in urgent de-
mand elsewhere on the continent.
In the Grecian economy. ship

include bauxite. iron pyrites, and
