Summary
The present survey aims to study the dynamics of the foreign trade flows of agricultural products between Bulgaria and the other EU Member States, the Balkan countries and the former members of CEFTA (until 2007). Using a methodological toolbox the author measures the degree of trade specialization of our country in the field of import and export of agricultural products in terms of separate product groups.

In the process of research the author follows the dynamics of specialization in the field of trade in agricultural products and outlines the changes in the export and import flows resulting from various economic and political factors as well as defines the degree of effect of these changes on the economic development.
