Sažetak
This paper describes the results of the survey performed on organic beekeeping sector in the Mediterranean countries. Based on accessible information obtained from different institutions and organizations, as well as from official responsible bodies of countries belonging to the Mediterranean area, major figures in number of organic beehives and amount of beehive products are being elaborated when available. Special attention is given to the area of organic beekeeping activity emphasizing the importance of the environmental conditions of the beehive pasture for the compliance with organic norms. Furthermore, vegetation diversity of Mediterranean basin is immense giving basis for the profound diversity of bee products (principally honey) based on their botanical as well as on geographical origin. Moreover, main obstacles in organic beekeeping will be stressed too taking into the account differences in organic legal frame in different Mediterranean countries. Some major achievements in homogenization of the organic beekeeping sector in Mediterranean will also be showed, as well as potential advantages for Croatian organic beekeeping production deriving from Croatian comparative advantages.
