Results of research collected in the first phase of an ongoing project “Risk Management and Crop Insurance in Croatian Agriculture” are presented. The main body of the paper contains results of an horticultural farms’ survey. In the form of closed questions and using Likert type scale, farmers’ decision making processes, risk perceptions and risk management strategies have been investigated. The survey put emphasis on crop insurance, trying to find evidence about its use and role for farmers. The results show a considerable gap between crop insurance importance as perceived by farmers and its application as the risk management strategy. About 75% of farmers never used crop insurance. The main reasons are: high premium price, small number of perils covered by the insurance policy and insufficient supply of crop insurance. Further research should evaluate risk management strategies and their effects on farm business results.
