Development of croatian agriculture

Hrvati su se od doseljenja u ove krajeve počeli baviti zemljoradnjom. Cilj je ovoga rada prikazati povijesni razvoj poljoprivrede u Hrvatskoj i nove tendencije u poljoprivrednom sektoru te se osvrnuti na trenutno stanje u hrvatskoj poljoprivredi. Hrvatska je u sastavu Jugoslavije bila agrarna zemlja koja 80-ih doživljava duboku krizu koja se nastavlja 90-ih uslijed Domovinskog rata. Nakon ulaska u Europsku uniju sve više dolazi do izražaja važnost ruralnog razvoja. Hrvatska je poljoprivreda nekonkurentna u usporedbi s predmetnim sektorom većine ostalih zemalja Europske unije zbog čega je potrebno unaprijediti konkurentnost. Za razvoj poljoprivrede u Hrvatskoj potrebno je analizirati i razumjeti povijesni razvoj predmetnog sektora te društvene i političke okolnosti koje su utjecale na trenutno stanje poljoprivrede, a koje će se odraziti i na budući razvoj poljoprivrednog sektora.Since settling in this region, Croatians have been engaged in agriculture. This paper aims to outline the historical development of agriculture in Croatia, to present new trends in the agricultural sector and to look at the current situation in Croatian agriculture. As part of Yugoslavia, Croatia was an agrarian country that experienced a deep crisis in the 1980s, which continued in the 1990s during the Croatian War of Independence. After joining the European Union, the importance of rural development is becoming increasingly apparent. Croatian agriculture is uncompetitive compared to the sector in question in most other European Union countries, which is why it is necessary to improve competitiveness. For the development of agriculture in Croatia, it is necessary to analyse and understand historical development of the sector in question and the social and political circumstances that have affected the current state of agriculture, which will be reflected in future development
