ОЦЕНКА НА СОЦИАЛНО-ИКОНОМИЧЕСКАТА И ЕКОЛОГИЧНА УСТОЙЧИВОСТ НА АГРАРНИТЕ ЕКОСИСТЕМИ В БЪЛГАРИЯ
Резюме
Предложен е холистичен подход за оценка на интегралната, икономическата, социалната и екологичната устойчивост на агроекосистемите в България, който включва система от 17 принципа, 35 критерия и 46 показателя и референтни стойности. Оценена е общата и аспектната устойчивост на 7 типови и 10 специфични агроекосистеми в страната. Оценките са базирани на първична информация, събрана от мениджърите на типични ферми на територията на различни агроекосистеми в 4 географски района. Изследването установява, че съществува значителна вариация в нивата на интегрална и аспектна устойчивост на агроекосистемите от различен вид, както и в приноса към устойчивостта на отделните подотрасли на селското стопанство и ферми от различен юридически тип и размери, като индивидуалните показатели с най-високи и ниски стойности показват критичните фактори, повишаващи или понижаващи устойчивостта.
