The biggest rise is seen in the southeastern region of the country -  over 79%. Agricultural land there used to be cheaper, which made it attractive to investors.

The price of land in the northeast region of Dobrudzha rose by 51% and is sold for 752 euros per decare or 255 euros more in comparison to 2014. The lowest price rise was marked in the southwestern region - 21%. The price of meadows and pastures has risen by just 9 percent.
