Summary/Abstract: The paper analyzes the development of trade with agricultural products for Bulgaria and the European Union during the period 1998 -2009. The research is based mainly on empirical data, where the most important periods: 2004-2005, 2007 – 2009 are outlined. The reason for choosing them is the change in status of the Central and Eastern Europe countries and their full membership in the European Union. In order to derive the benefits for Bulgaria upon trade in certain agricultural products the index of B. Balassa is used for calculating the apparent comparative advantages in the trade in certain product or commodity groups.
