There are limited data on Croatian consumers' preferences and willingness to pay for fresh meat from the Black Slavonian pig. The survey was conducted on a sample of
= 410 Croatian consumers, using a ...hypothetical choice experiment to examine how food attributes and information treatment influence consumers' decisions regarding fresh ham meat of the Black Slavonian pig. The hypothetical choice experiment was conducted using fresh boneless pork ham with three attributes (price, colour and geographical information) as the focuses of the product. Croatian consumers were randomly assigned to one of two treatment options (control or information) in an online survey to investigate the role of information. Our results indicate that Croatian consumers have a clear preference for fresh boneless ham from the Black Slavonian pig produced in both production systems and labelled as reared in continental Croatia and with a protected designation of origin (PDO) label, compared with fresh boneless ham produced from conventionally reared pigs (intensive rearing-indoor rearing) without the label. The results show that the information given to consumers about the production system, meat colour and geographical information positively influenced consumer choice. Appropriate labelling and information about the product can positively influence consumers' preferences, which indicates the importance of highlighting the traditional characteristics (production system, darker colour of the meat and production area) of fresh meat from Black Slavonian pig on the label in promotional activities.
This study investigated the attitudes of Croatian consumers regarding their preferences for cured meat products from the Black Slavonian Pig. The survey was conducted on a sample of 410 consumers who ...completed an online survey about their consumption habits, knowledge about the pig breed, and socio-demographic characteristics. In this study, the independent samples t-test and ANOVA were conducted to determine the significant differences between the most important attributes in the purchase of cured Black Slavonian Pig products and the socio-demographic characteristics, consumption, and purchase habits of the respondents. Statistically significant differences were found between the studied intrinsic (color, odor, fat content, and salt content) and extrinsic variables (production method, brand, quality mark, and origin) in relation to the socio-demographic characteristics of the respondents (gender, age, employment status, number of household members, and number of children under 15 in the household) and place of purchase, knowledge about the breed, and frequency of consumption of Black Slavonian Pig meat and products. Principal component analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis (CA) were used to determine the consumer segments. Based on the responses received, three homogeneous consumer segments were identified: intrinsically oriented meat consumers, extrinsically oriented meat consumers, and uninterested meat consumers. The information obtained in the study is important for producers and retailers, as they can use our findings to develop successful marketing tools and different marketing strategies to promote cured Black Slavonian Pig products.

Bioeconomy, which encompasses a broad scope of activity and can be terminologically explained in many ways, essentially contributes to the innovation, sustainability, economic growth and employment. ...The common features of cooperatives and bioeconomy are recognized, among other things, in the values such as equality, social responsibility, environmental protection, self-reliance, self-responsibility, democracy, etc. Cooperatives possess a social note, but the goal of their positioning as the creators of sustainability has to involve raising public awareness about what a sustainable cooperative business is. A cooperative is an association that puts people, environment, and social responsibility first, after the profit. The aim of the research was to identify the links between a cooperative business and bioeconomy in the function of sustainable rural development, thus identifying the characteristics and challenges of cooperatives in Osijek-Baranja County while proposing the measures for cooperative operations in the context of social economy. The paper analyses internal and external problems, such as institutional support, legal regulation, administrative measures, financial incentives, interpersonal relationships, educational structure etc. Based on the identified problem, a correlation between the given variables was investigated. Numerous experiences demonstrate that a cooperative, as a model of socially responsible entrepreneurship, ensures better living conditions and contributes to the overall and sustainable development of the European society. In Osijek-Baranja County, cooperatives have great significance, and although the number of cooperatives in the observed period(2011-2016) tends to fall, the total annual income of cooperatives and the number of employees tend to grow.
According to the data of the Croatian Chamber of Economy (2016), department responsible for agriculture, fisheries, forestry, wood and food industry in Republic of Croatia 1.5 million hectares of ...utilized agricultural land 54% refers to arable land and gardens, 5% refers to orchards, vineyards and olive groves and 41% on permanent lawns. Viticulture and winemaking in Croatia has a long tradition, a high level of production knowledge and producers experience which, in addition to favorable natural conditions and a developed market of demand, give stimulating conditions for sustainable production development. A large number of competitors and fierce competition among the winemakers characterizes bought Croatian and European wine markets. ...according to the study (Del Vechio et al., 2017) buyers give primary importance to the quality of the product and if the domestic product is equal in this parameter with the foreign product, there is a strong motivation to purchase the product produced by the domestic industry. There are a large number of producers in the economy with different business plans, individual approaches to product management, and they do not have to (but can) participate in the international exchange of goods.

Za jačanje konkurentnosti ekološke poljoprivrede u Republici Hrvatskoj važno je prepoznati položaj, mogućnosti, uvjerenja i stavove ekoloških proizvođača. S tim ciljem provedeno je anketiranje 236 ...ekoloških proizvođača iz 5 hrvatskih regija prema spolu, dobi, stupnju obrazovanja i području s kojega dolaze. Ispitanicima je ponuđen širok spektar tvrdnja o čimbenicima koji mogu utjecati na konkurentnost hrvatske ekološke poljoprivrede. Za anketiranje je korišten upitnik s pitanjima zatvorenoga tipa, te su za analizu stavova proizvođača o ponuđenim tvrdnjama, uz deskriptivnu statistiku, korišteni Likertova skala s 5 stupnjeva i hi-kvadratni test (χ²). Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su kako proizvođači usmenu preporuku o kvaliteti svojih proizvoda smatraju ključnom za jačanje konkurentnosti, a nju slijede udruživanje ekoloških proizvođača, nastup na specijaliziranim sajmovima te zakonski i podzakonski okvir za ekološku proizvodnju.
To strengthen the competitiveness of organic agriculture in the Republic of Croatia, it is crucial to recognize the organic producers’ positions, possibilities, beliefs, and attitudes. With this aim, a survey was conducted among 236 organic producers from five Croatian regions according to their gender, age, level of education, and the region they operate in. A broad spectrum of statements about the factors that can affect the competitiveness of Croatian organic agriculture were offered to the respondents. The survey used closed-ended questions. To analyze the manufacturers’ opinions on the offered statements, a five-point Likert scale and chi-squared test (χ²) were used, along with descriptive statistics. The research results proved that the producers consider oral recommendations about the quality of their products to be crucial for strengthening competitiveness, followed by a collective organic producers’ action, participation in specialized fairs, and a legal framework of organic production formed by the laws and bylaws.
