The milling industry in the Republic of Croatia (1945—1990)
Davorin Hrsto
Sažetak
Wheat, the basic raw material of the
milling industry, is one of the main
agricultural crops (besides maize) and
plays an important role in Croatian
agriculture. In the Republic of Croatia
milling products obtained through milling
wheat provide an average of 31.1% (1990)
of the daily energy intake of every
inhabitant. Besides, the price of wheat
serves to determine the price of other
agricultural products, including products
of food industry.
The milling industry passed through
several important periods from 1945 to
1990. In the 1945—1958 period demand
of milling products exceeded supply and
there was constant wheat import. After
two fertile years (1957, 1958), »arranging«
conditions on the wheat market, and
because of increased industrial and
agrarian progress, the problem of wheat
and flour was completely normalized and
so it has remained until today. Since 1970
there has been market surplus which has
lead to chaos in the flour market.
Since then milling capacities have
constantly been greater than the real
needs of the population.
