Abstract
Open data is critical for digital innovation in the sector of agriculture. We aimed to identify the four key elements of the open data ecosystem for the agricultural domain in Croatia. 357 data files available via the Croatian Open data portal, the internet pages of the Ministry of agriculture, the Croatian agency for agriculture and food, as well as the Paying Agency for Agriculture, Fisheries and Rural Development were analysed. The main G2B publishers of the agriculture domain have not yet reached their potential in opening data. There are still many raw and aggregated datasets not openly available. The published data lack a suitable format for data linking and information on licencing.
