      abstract = {Scientific and technological development has spurred  large-scale food
production, thus enabling a solution,  although partial, to one of the biggest global
problems of  modern civilization – food shortage. Nevertheless, it has  been shown
that chemicalization and mechanization of  agriculture lead to multiple negative
environmental impacts  and that overuse of pesticides and artificial fertilizers  is
detrimental to human health. Bearing in mind both local  and global tendencies
towards necessary ecologization of  agriculture in keeping with the generally
accepted  development model – sustainable development – and  acknowledging the
opinion that ecological awareness is the  basis for avoidance of high-risk activities
and mitigation  of existing environmental issues, the paper presents data  obtained
through empirical research pertaining to certain  aspects of ecological awareness in
individual farmers of  the Jablanički County. Based on these data, we  concluded
that ecological awareness in this part of the  population is partially developed.},
