Sažetak

Croatia is one of the European countries with the smallest share of irrigated agricultural land, which is incompatible with its climatic and production features. With a share of 2% of irrigated land, Croatia lags about ten and more times from comparable Mediterranean countries. Nevertheless, due to the high investment costs estimated in the National Irrigation Project of EUR 9,000 per ha of project area, the introduction of irrigation systems should be planned rationally in order to avoid adverse economic and financial impacts. The aim of the paper is to describe some of the most important irrigation system feasibility factors that should be taken into account when deciding on irrigation system construction in some area. The basic prerequisites for this kind of projects are the selection of the project where the real risks of drought were determined, in which vegetable production has a significant role, and where applied technological solutions provide a favorable water price for farmers.
