Descripción
Due to the limited domestic market and a loss of traditional markets, Croatian
economic development today is based on export orientation with an important role
of agriculture. Since 1990’s Croatian economy began transformation from
communistic economy towards a liberal market economy. At the same time,
Croatia intensified association processes to world and European trade organizations
(WTO in 2000, free trade agreements with some European countries, signing
Stabilization and Association Agreement - SAA in 2001 as well as beginning of
EU accession negotiation process in 2005). Croatian agriculture experienced
numerous transitional problems (mentioned loss of traditional markets, failures in
privatizing state-owned land, poorly organized markets, technological and
educational limitations, producer insolvency, an export-import deficit etc).
The aim of this paper is to explore limitations of Croatian agriculture as well as
possibilities that come along with associations to world and European
organizations and associations.
