Sažetak
Istra County at the northern part of the Adriatic Sea was mainly an agricultural region until the last decades when tourism took the leading role in economy. Chances for an off-farm employment occurred as very attractant to men and women (especially younger and more educated). Up to nowadays fast changes on the job market reflected on family farms negatively changing the age, professional and family structure. The positive effects occurred for women through economic independence. Relating on farm employment, management and income the majority of women in Istra County are excluded having primary role in household and family maters, because the most farm are runned and owned by men also in the future men will be the successors. In order to understand the position of women on family farms in Istra County this paper discusses the past and the present demographic and family farm conditions connected to nowadays family. On a sample of 111 farms we tried to show a picture of the present situation on family farms in Istra County. Important research results showed that almost all farms were owned by men (including all agricultural resources) ; family members were the main labour source ; most active women were pluriactive (effecting the labour input on-farm) ; very involved in on-farm activities, while aged women were more often less educated housewives. Enrolling the existing traditional elements in the way of working and living on-farm with the changing family and farm structure it is up to women for the future to find new ways of defining their role becoming more important in farming and in rural Europe.
