Ornamental Plant Production in Croatia
Ornamental plant production in Croatia has an eighty-year-old tradition. Majority of production is located along Adriatic coast and inland, near bigger cities. Climatological conditions are under the influence of both the sea and continental air masses. Croatia mostly has a good water and soil quality as well as developed transport and communication system. After the Second World War, ornamental plant production was mainly organized on big scale companies, owned by the state. Starting from the nineties the production moved on private, family farms. Today, production of ornamental plants is mainly executed under protected environment while the production of ornamental trees, shrubs and rose seedlings is organized outdoors. Primarily grown are cut flowers, especially chrysanthemums, carnations, roses, gerberas, and bedding plants. Currently, Croatia is oriented on the import of ornamental plants ; in the last eight years Croatia has imported ornamental plants in total value of 110.8 million USD. Data on import of ornamental plants is showing that there is marketing niche for this sort of product. At present, Croatia has 62 ha of undercover production area, mostly without modern equipment. The ornamental plant production is suffering from lack of investment in the new technologies and there is no serious and systematic approach of state policy to this segment of agricultural production.
