Sažetak
Horsemeat represents special and valuable food. An increasing trend in the production of horsemeat in the world is noticeable. Within the EU countries, the average consumption of horsemeat per capita is 0.4 kg per year, but, because of their own insufficient production, they cover 66.7% of the market demand by import.
A higher content of water, proteins and glycogens, and a smaller content of fat in horsemeat make it more suitable for nourishment, particularly of more demanding people, in comparison to pork or beef.
The geographic position and the breed structure of the horse population in Croatia provide good chances for a profitable production of horsemeat with possible export orientation.
