Abstract

Izvorne hrvatske pasmine koza (hrvatska šarena koza, hrvatska bijela koza i istarska koza) čine gotovo polovinu ukupne evidentirane populacije koza u Hrvatskoj. Međutim, uzgoj hrvatskih izvornih pasmina koza najčešće je obilježen izrazitom ekstenzivnošću te vrlo niskom dohodovnošću i učinkovitošću proizvodnje. Možebitnu dodatnu prihodovnu mogućnost uzgajivačima izvornih pasmina koza omogućava ponuda njihovih proizvoda kroz agroturizam. Stoga je cilj ovog rada bio utvrditi informiranost potrošača i njihove spoznaje o izvornim pasminama koza te utvrditi percepciju o potencijalu izvornih pasmina koza i/ili njihovih proizvoda u sklopu agroturističke ponude. U svrhu istraživanja stavova potrošača provedeno je on-line anketno ispitivanje u kojem je ukupno sudjelovalo 353 punoljetnih ispitanika različitih spolnih i dobnih skupina, stupnja obrazovanja te mjesta stanovanja. Iz prikupljenih odgovora ispitanika razvidne su dobre mogućnosti uzgoja izvornih hrvatskih pasmina koza za potrebe agroturizma. Više od 90% ispitanih smatra da bi izvorne pasmine koza i njihovi proizvodi upotpunili i obogatili agroturističku ponudu, a 51,3% ispitanih smatra da bi uzgoj izvornih hrvatskih pasmina koza za potrebe agroturizma pridonio ostanku mladih ljudi na selu i revitalizaciji ruralnih prostora. Više od dvije trećine ispitanih (67,4%) bi češće posjećivala neki agroturizam na kojemu se uzgajaju izvorne pasmine koza i/ili u ponudi ima njihove proizvode. Znatan dio ispitanih (43%) smatra da su proizvodi izvornih pasmina koza kvalitetniji od proizvoda ostalih pasmina, dok otprilike trećina ispitanih smatra da bi proizvodi izvornih pasmina trebali biti cjenovno skuplji nego proizvodi ostalih pasmina koza.

Abstract (english)

Indigenous Croatian goat breeds (Croatian spotted goat, Croatian white goat and Istrian goat) make up almost half of the total registered population of goats in Croatia. However, breeding of indigenous Croatian goat breeds is most often characterized by extreme extensiveness and very low profitability and production efficiency. Possible additional income opportunity for breeders of indigenous goat breeds is to offer their products through agritourism. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine consumer awareness and their knowledge about indigenous goat breeds as well as how consumers see potential of indigenous goat breeds and/or their products as part of agritourism offer. Consumer attitudes survey was conducted by an online survey where a total of 353 adult respondents of different gender and age groups, level of education and place of residence have participated. The collected answers of the respondents show good possibilities for breeding of indigenous Croatian goat breeds for the purposes of agritourism. More than 90% of respondents believe that indigenous Croatian goat breeds and theit products would complement and enrich the agritourism offer, while 51.3% of respondents believe that the breeding of indigenous Croatian goat breeds for agritourism would contribute to the stay of young people in the countryside and revitalization of rural areas. More than two thirds of the respondents (67.4%) would more often visit an agritourism where the goats of indigenous breeds are bred and/or their products are offered. A significant part of the respondents (43%) believe that the products of the indigenous goat breeds are of better quality than the products of other breeds, while approximately one third of the respondents think that the products of the indigenous breeds should be more expensive than the products of other goat breeds.
