The event was attended by the Danish and Croatian ministers of agriculture, Hans Christian Schmidt and Petar Cobankovic respectively, who previously held talks at the Croatian Agriculture Ministry. The two officials discussed cooperation in agriculture and food industry, Croatia's integration with the EU, and measures the country is taking to develop its rural areas.
Schmidt said he hoped he would be able to welcome Croatia in the European family in the near future. He underlined the importance of building closer cooperation, notably in the food sector.
The Zagreb event also included individual meetings between representatives of Croatian and Danish food companies.
