Agricultural Considerations

Farmers in Bulgaria have historically had mixed feelings about DST. While the original justification for DST included giving farmers more daylight hours, modern farming practices rely heavily on the sun's position rather than clock time. Dairy farmers particularly note that cows don't adjust their biological clocks, creating temporary disruptions in milking schedules.

Preparation Tips

75% Ready

✓ Be extra cautious driving the Monday after the spring time change - accident rates increase.

✓ Update your car clock, microwave, and other manual clocks that don't auto-update.

✓ Use the extra evening daylight in summer for outdoor activities and vitamin D.

✓ Set your clocks before going to bed to avoid confusion in the morning.
