Abstract (english)
The aim of the study was to analyze how important the way in which the laying hens are reared is for the consumers when buying the eggs for consumption. The research was conducted on the territory of the three counties of the continental part of the Republic of Croatia by conducting a survey. Two hundred eighty people were interviewed, and 225 valid questionnaires were analyzed. More women (59.10%) than men (40.90%) took part in the survey. Most respondents were between 30 and 39 years of age, employed, and had a vocational high-school education. Most respondents had a monthly family income ranging between €265 and €665. Most frequently, the respondents purchased the eggs in a shopping center and ate them several times a week. A large number of respondents (201) believe that the type of hen rearing influenced the quality of eggs but were unwilling to spend more money to buy the eggs from the alternative rearing systems, which was reflected in a res-ponse that the price was the most important factor in their choice when buying the eggs. The results show that there is a need to educate the people about how the hens are kept for a consumer-egg production and to familiarize them with the Animal Welfare Act and basic egg-quality indicators.
Abstract (croatian)
Cilj rada bio je istražiti koliko je potrošačima važan način držanja nesilica prilikom kupovine konzumnih jaja. Istraživanje je provedeno na područjima triju županija kontinentalnoga dijela Republike Hrvatske provedbom ankete. Anketirano je 280 ispitanika, a obrađeno je 225 valjanih anketa. Anketi je pristupilo više žena (59,10 %) negoli muškaraca (40,90 %). Najviše ispitanika bilo je u dobi od 30 do 39 godina, zaposlenih i srednjega stručnog obrazovanja. Najviše ispitanika imalo je mjesečni dohodak u obitelji od 265 do 665 €. Ispitanici najčešće jaja kupuju u trgovačkome centru, a konzumiraju ih više puta tjedno. Velik broj ispitanika (201) smatra da način držanja kokoši nesilica utječe na kvalitetu jaja, međutim, ispitanici i dalje nisu spremni odvojiti više novca za kupovinu jaja iz alternativnih uzgoja, na što ukazuje odgovor da je cijena glavni čimbenik koji utječe na odabir jaja prilikom kupovine. Rezultati ukazuju da je nužno educirati ljude o načinima držanja kokoši za proizvodnju konzumnih jaja te ih upoznati sa Zakonom o dobrobiti životinja i osnovnim pokazateljima kvalitete jaja.
