Abstract

Na ruralnom prostoru, koji čini oko 90% površine Republike Hrvatske, živi nešto manje od 50% njezinih stanovnika. Iako je udio poljoprivrednog u ukupnom stanovništvu Hrvatske samo oko 5%, značaj poljoprivrede je jako velik. S obzirom na prirodnu i kulturnu raznolikost ruralnih prostora, bogatu resursnu osnovu turističkih atrakcija i očuvani okoliš, Republika Hrvatska ima preduvjete za razvijanje agroturizma. Kompleksnom analizom utemeljenom na anketiranju nositelja turističkih seljačkih obiteljskih gospodarstava provedenom u ovom istraživanju dokazan je veliki potencijal razvoja agroturizma u regiji Primorska Hrvatska. Agroturizam se na ovom prostoru nalazi u početnoj fazi razvoja i nema velik udio u ukupnom turističkom prometu. Međutim, jasno su uočene razlike pojedinih dijelova regije. Valja istaknuti Istru kao primjer dobre prakse razvoja agroturizma u funkciji ublažavanja efekta sezonalnosti povećanjem smještajnih kapaciteta te u funkciji postupne revitalizacije ruralnog prostora podizanjem životnog standarda lokalnog stanovništva koje se do sada bavilo samo poljoprivredom. Tome bi trebali težiti i ostali dijelovi regije. Većim angažmanom nositelja ovog oblika turizma, kao i većim angažmanom vlasti u donošenju mjera razvoja agroturizma, čemu može poslužiti i razvojni model regije Primorska Hrvatska prikazan u radu, u dogledno bi vrijeme agroturizam mogao postati jedan od temeljnih elemenata razvoja koji će generirati nužne promjene u ruralnom prostoru.

Abstract (english)

Rural areas in the Republic of Croatia cover about 90% of the territory and have little less than 50% of its residents. Despite the fact that the agricultural population accounts for only about 5% of the total population in Croatia, agriculture is very important. Due to the natural and cultural diversity of rural areas, many tourist attractions and preserved environment, the Republic of Croatia has preconditions for the development of agrotourism. This complex research was based on surveys and interviews with holders of rural tourist family farms and shows great potential for agrotourism development in Littoral Croatia. Agrotourism is in this area at an early stage of development and has a small share in the total tourist traffic. However, clear differences between some parts of the region were seen. Istria is a good example of agritourism development in the function of tourist season extension by increasing accommodations and in the function of gradual revitalization of rural areas by raising the living standards of local agricultural population. Other parts of the region should also go in this direction. Greater engagement of the holders of agrotourism, as well as greater involvement of the authorities in bringing development measures, which can also serve the development model presented in this paper, is sure to lead agrotourism to becoming one of the core elements of the development that will generate the necessary changes in the rural area.
