Direct Help: Order From a Petrinja OPG, Small Producer, Family Farm
January 9, 2021 – The area affected by the devastating earthquake of 29 December 2020 is mostly rural. People there live off the land. They employ others at family farms and as small scale producers. Ordering from a Petrinja OPG or one from the surroundings directly helps families and the economy of the earthquake-affected area, so here's a list detailing them
Alongside the outpourings of sympathy and promise of prayers, since the large earthquakes of December 2020 struck Sisak-Moslavina County, Total Croatia News has been inundated with requests from regular readers and other asking how they can directly and effectively help. TCN has tried to answer all enquiries the best we can and has striven towards directing donors to the best-placed outlets.
Certainly, the rebuild of the communities and economies in places like Petrinja, Glina, Sisak and hundreds of surrounding villages, hamlets and settlements will take months, even years. As TCN discovered after we visited the affected region one day after the earthquake, this area is predominantly rural. People here live off the land, from agricultural endeavours. Small producers and family farms make up much of the economy. In a year where such producers have been hard hit by travel restrictions and other aspects of the pandemic, the livelihoods of many have been shattered by the subsequent earthquake.
In a pro-active, helpful and exhaustive piece of data collection, writer Antonia Dobrota and the team at Croatian-language tourism portal cimerfraj have over recent days come up with an inspired suggestion of how [people can directly help the economies and people of the affected region. They have published a list of as many small producers, family farms and Petrinja OPG producers, plus those in surrounding areas.
By ordering food, produce and goods like pottery from this list, people can spend their money directly within the economies of the affected area – no suspicion, no doubt, no middlemen, no staffing costs deducted. It is an inspired decision to construct (and continually update) such a list. Bravo, Antonia and cimerfraj! Several Croatian-language media outlets have since republished the list. Total Croatia News is pleased to do so in English. We warmly encourage its use, not only now, but in the months that follow.
Being small producers and family farms, most of the producers below are not only vital to others in the local communities (by offering employment opportunities), their goods are almost exclusively organic and produced in a traditional, eco-friendly manner. Any orders should be submitted with the utmost confidence.
(OPG is a designation in Croatia that is given specifically to family farms and small, community producers)

Cimerfraj add the following notes:
This list includes all small producers and family farms from the earthquake-affected settlements and the surrounding areas. At the time of compiling the list, we do not know whether these manufacturers are harmed or not, nor do we consider this important. We believe that synergy is necessary in order to initiate the balanced development of favorable existential opportunities for life in this area.
Due to some parts of the area currently being poorly covered by phone and internet signal, some of the manufacturers are easier to contact by text message, SMS or WhatsApp.
The list is still being updated. If you know of a domestic manufacturer from the affected area who is not currently included, please send all relevant details to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
Meat Production Affected by Lower Prices due to Corona Crisis
ZAGREB, September 13, 2020 - The drop in prices caused by the coronavirus crisis adversely affects meat production in Croatia, according to an analysis of the Smarter consulting firm specialised in agriculture and the food industry.
The analysis, released recently by Smarter, warns that the price of a side of pork dropped by 14.7% on the year in the EU while in Croatia it fell by 6.2%, which means that the price of pork on the domestic market was 7% higher compared to the average price in the EU.
However, this means that domestic farmers cannot compete with the prices of pork from the EU and that surplus meat from the EU will quickly end up on the Croatian market, bringing down the price of domestic meat, Smarter underscored.
The price of a side of veal is now 8% lower than the EU average, they pointed out.
There was a dramatic fall in demand in the HORECA (Hotel/Restaurant/Cafe) sector on the Italian market due to the coronavirus crisis, and export to the Middle East was halted and reduced, which resulted in a sudden surplus in domestic veal, Smarter said.
According to the analysis, despite the short-term measures taken by the Agriculture Ministry to help the sectors, it is much more important what kind of impact such trends could have on long-term meat production in Croatia and the position of farmers.
A positive trend in the pig sector is the 7% increase in self-sufficiency, and Croatia was one of the few countries in the EU to register an increase in pork consumption per capita, which is 13% above the EU average, Smarter noted.
At the same time, self-sufficiency in beef production dropped by 6%, they said.
