About project

Rosis4h

The ROSIS4H project is a result of successful cooperation between the Brodsko-Posavska County and Makarska County / Šabac area, and continues on the cross-border project of RUŽE 1 (ROSIS, ROSAS, ROSARUM), which encouraged the use of opportunities for cross-border horticultural production based on common interests and values and strategies for cross-border joint activities. The project idea has stimulated common interests and common values that support the socio-economic development of both administrative areas. The target groups from both countries worked together to create the future in high-potential horticulture. The project has significantly contributed to promoting business cooperation, increasing cross-border trade, developing labor market mobility, cross-border research and development and joint economic planning.

				
The same ideas were run by “old” partners in designing the project idea for the project “ROSIS4H”. The main partner of the project, Brodsko-posavska County Development Center, in partnership with Šabac, Regional Center for Biotechnical Research and Development of Brodsko-Posavska County Ltd., Matija Antun Reljkovic Secondary School and Slavonski Brod Agricultural School with Šabac School, through 21 the duration of the project will continue to strengthen the influence of the competence centers (established in the previous cross-border project) which have progressively developed in a sustainable manner over time. Their impact will be enhanced through the integration of entrepreneurial support institutions, clusters, educational and scientific research institutions and entrepreneurs into a virtual cross-border competence center using innovative IT solutions such as e-platform, B2B services, participation in fairs, capacity building of competence centers, partner schools , research and entrepreneurial support institutions.

The project will contribute to sector competitiveness through better selective production selection, targeting higher quality standards and reducing the impact of hazardous substances from insecticide and pesticides on food chain products. The horticultural sector will be able to present an attractive value chain and thus stimulate new sector investments. Special attention will be paid to activities of mutual networking of all participants in horticulture.
