Abstract


Oвај рад се фокусира на схватања, ставове и мотиве који утичу на одлучивање пољопривредних произвођача о кључним питањима која се односе на животну средину и пољопривредну производњу. Идентификација еколошке свести  спроведена је преко њених основних димензија: ставова, понашања и спремности испитаника за учешће у решавању еколошких проблема. У емпиријском делу, рад процењује да ли и колико еколошке праксе прате еколошке ставове испитаника. Једна од хипотез је да формално образовање као важна детерминанта значајно утиче на ставове о заштити животне средине и примену позитивних еколошких пракси. Такође је испитивано у којој мери начин и ниво информисаности у домену пољопривреде и заштите животне средине, утичу на ставове, праксе и ангажовање пољопривредних произвођача у очувању животне средине.

Кључне речи: еколошка свест, ставови, праксе, пољопривредни произвођачи, образовање, информисаност.

 

The identification of environmental awareness in this paper was conducted through its basic dimensions: attitudes, behavior and willingness of the respondents to participate in solving environmental problems. The paper focuses on understandings, attitudes and motivations that influence the decision of farmers regarding key issues related to the environment and agricultural production.

In the empirical section, this paper assesses whether and how environmental practices follow environmental attitudes of the respondents. One of the hypothesis is that formal education, as an important determinant, has a significant impact on the attitudes regarding environmental protection and the application of positive environmental practices. What was also examined was the extent of  and the manner in which information in the field of agriculture and environmental protection, influences the attitudes, practices and involvement of farmers in preserving the environment.

Key words: environmental awareness, attitudes, practices, agricultural producers education, information.
