INTRODUCTION OF NONTRANSGENIC SOYA IN SLOVENIAN PRODUCTION

Pomanjkanje pridelave soje v Evropi in s tem povezan podpis Deklaracije o pridelavi soje brez gensko spremenjenih organizmov v Sloveniji sta razloga za proučevanje vedenja o tej poljščini. Izvedli smo anketo, ki je bila izvedena med kmeti v Podravju, ki obdelujejo več kot 30 hektarjev njiv. Vsebovala je 11 vprašanj odprtega in zaprtega tipa. S pomočjo ankete smo spoznali, da je uporaba soje v prehrani živali v Podravju razširjena, saj jo v prehrano živali vključuje kar 77 % kmetovalcev, najpogosteje v obliki uvoženih sojinih tropin ter kot dodatek v krmnih mešanicah. Vključevanje soje v kolobar med kmetovalci še ni razširjeno, na kar vplivajo male obdelovalne površine, preteklo cenovno razmerje za beljakovinsko krmo, nepoznavanje sortimentov ter tehnike pridelave. Velik problem se kaže v neozaveščenosti o novostih, saj je bilo le 37 % anketirancev seznanjenih s podpisom Deklaracije o pridelavi netransgene soje. Kljub temu pa bi 73 % anketiranih dalo prednost gensko nespremenjeni soji in kar 90 % anketirancev bi sejalo gensko nespremenjeno seme. Na podlagi tega lahko sklepamo, da so slovenski kmetje v Podravju zainteresirani za pridelavo netransgene soje, vendar jim manjka večja ozaveščenost ter spodbuda s strani države.Lack of soya production in Europe and in connection with this signing of Declaration of soya production without genetically modified organisms in Slovenia are two reasons for researching the behaviour about this field crop. We have performed a pole which has been done among farmers in Podravje region that work on more than 30 hectares of fields. It has 11 questions of opened and closed type. We have found with its help that using soya in food for animals in Podravje region is wide spread because it is included in 77% feeding of farmers’ animals, mostly in the form of imported soya skins and as additive to fodder mixtures. Including soya in circulation, it still is not widespread among farmers which are affected by small cultivating areas, past price proportion for protein fodder, not knowing the assortment, and the techniques of production. A big problem has been shown in unawareness of assortments and techniques of production because only 37% of the respondents knew about the signing of the Declaration about non-transgenic soya. Even though 73% of the respondents would give advantage to genetically unmodified soya and 90% of the respondents would sow genetically unmodified seeds. According to that, we can conclude that the Slovenian farmers in Podravje are interested in production of non-transgenic soya. However, they lack higher awareness and encouragement from the state
