Consumer attitudes towards farm animal welfare in Croatia: A review

The results showed that Croatian consumers were familiar with the animal welfare concept, considering farm animal welfare to be very important for food quality. The consumers had positive attitudes towards animal welfare-friendly products and were willing to pay an extra price for such products. However, most of consumers did not think about animal welfare when purchasing meat and meat products. All these studies were conducted before Croatia joining the European Union and focusing only on the consumer attitudes towards meat producing animal welfare. Therefore, more studies, including larger samples of respondents from different Croatian regions and other farm animal products (milk, eggs) are needed to examine more precisely the attitudes of our consumers towards farm animal welfare.
