Abstract

The aim of the paper was to determine selected economic and production indicators of the agricultural development in Continental Croatia from 2009 to 2018. The age structure of the family farm holders is more favorable in Continental Croatia (a higher proportion of those under the age of 41; a lower proportion of those over the age of 65) in relation to the national average, while the education is lower (education coefficient 1. 38). The number of employees in agriculture is declining, while the foreign trade of agriculture, forestry and fisheries recorded an increase in value in the observed period. The utilized agricultural area increased in the observed period solely due to the increase in the area under permanent grassland, which had a negative impact on the gross value added of agriculture, which has a negative trend in the observed period. Previously mentioned is also a consequence of the decline in livestock production, in particular cattle and pig production. Croatian agriculture needs a generational renewal that will at the same time contribute to improving the educational structure and also a greater focus on livestock production that creates greater added value.
