The main goal of the Symposium is to present to the agronomists and the general public the results of scientific and professional work of Croatian and international specialists and in this way enable a better transfer of scientific and professional achievements into agricultural production. We also wish to establish better collaboration between scientists from the universities, research institutions and specialists from industry, trade and other related activities, that is, producers from Croatia, Europe and the rest of the World in their common field of interest in science and agricultural practice.
