Croatia Environment Management Plan
- The project is being prepared under the Danube-Black Sea Strategic Partnership Program- Nutrient Reduction Investment Fund under which riparian countries are eligible for Global Environment Facility (GEF) Grants for projects that help control or mitigate nutrient discharges into the Danube River and Black Sea. Activities under the GEF project will complement those under the IBRD-financed Agricultural Acquis Cohesion Project (AACP) that aims to strengthen Croatia’s capacity and readiness to absorb EU pre- and post-accession funds.

- The development objective of the project is to significantly increase the use of environmentally friendly agricultural practices by farmers in Croatia’s Pannonian plain in order to reduce nutrient discharge from agricultural sources to surface and ground water bodies. In support of this, the project will assist the Government of Croatia to: (i) promote mitigating measures for nutrient reduction from agricultural sources to surface and ground water bodies (manure management); (ii) implement a national Agrienvironment policy (Code of Good Agricultural Practices); and (iii) a public awareness campaign that would disseminate the benefits of project activities with the aim towards replication at the national and regional levels. The global environmental objective of the project is to reduce the discharge of nutrients into waters draining into the Danube River and Black Sea.

Croatia-Project concept
- The development objective of the GEF-funded project is to increase significantly the use of environmentally friendly agricultural practices by farmers in Croatia’s Pannonian plain in order to reduce nutrient discharge from agricultural sources to the Danube River and Black Sea. In support of this, the project will assist the Government of Croatia to: (i) implement the EU Nitrates Directive and thereby strengthen national policy, enforcement and implementation capacity for agricultural nutrient pollution control; (ii) develop a Code of Good Agriculture Practices and promote the adoption of the recommended farming practices with on-farm demonstrations of the priority environmental conservation investments; and (iii) public awareness campaign that would disseminate the knowledge about the choices the farming community will have at its disposal while responding to the more stringent requirements for reducing nutrient loads (nitrogen and phosphorous) entering local water bodies.
