Abstract
As consciousness about significance of preserving environment around farms and welfare of farm animals is increasing every day, ecological and ethological aspects are becoming more important in making decision about ways of pig production. Intensive farming has shown its weaknesses through low resistance of pigs and occurrence of new diseases. On the other side, low production coming from high number of small producers in Croatia is not acceptable due to the low competitiveness and huge amount of imported pork. The solution is seen in redirecting ground properties to those who are younger, educated and willing to produce much through “Enlarging Ground Properties” program, which should increase domestic pig production by better genetics and living condition in middle sized family farms. This should have significant influence on improving ecological and ecological aspects of pig production in Croatia.Z zavedanjem pomena varovanja okolja ob posestvih in dobrega počutja živali, se je pri odločanju o načinih reje prašičev potrebno ozirati tudi na ekološke in etološke vidike. Zaradi intenzivnega farmskega načina kmetovanja se je odpornost prašičev zmanjšala in pojavile so se nove bolezni. Vendar pa tudi veliko število majhnih proizvajalcev na Hrvaškem ni sprejemljivo zaradi premajhne konkurenčnosti ob velikih količinah uvožene svinjine. Možna rešitev je v preusmeritvi zemljiške lastnine na mlade, izobražene in dela voljne ljudi s pomočjo programa “Enlarging Ground Properties”, ki bi lahko vplival na povečanje domače prireje prašičev z boljšo genetsko osnovo in boljšimi rejskimi pogoji na srednje velikih družinskih kmetijah. To bi lahko pomembno vplivalo na izboljšanje ekoloških in etoloških vidikov reje prašičev na Hrvaškem
