Collective Mark<\/h3>\n

The collective mark \u201cLandscape Park Strunjan\u201d is a label which certifies an agricultural or processed food product, catering or tourist service from the area of Landscape Park Strunjan, meeting or exceeding the criteria prescribed, and bestows added value on them in its capacity of high-quality certification.<\/p>\n

\nIn addition to linking local suppliers and service providers, the purpose of protecting superior goods and services with a collective mark is to increase the visibility of Landscape Park Strunjan while maintaining the utmost control over the performance of services and the cultivation and\/or processing techniques of the goods within its boundaries. Such supervision should lessen the impacts on the environment, reduce the activities that produce them, and thus guarantee the highest degree of nature protection within the area of the park.<\/p>\n

The collective mark is a trust mark, a guarantee of quality and an ecolabel at the same time. The authorised producers and providers use it as a guarantee that their services and the cultivation, processing or preparation for market of their products affect the natural environment in the least invasive way possible.<\/p>\n

The owner of the collective mark is the Public Institute Landscape Park Strunjan (JZ KPS), which can confer interested local producers, manufacturers and service providers a one-year license to use the mark. The latter was registered in 2010 with the financial aid of the\u00a0European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development<\/a>\u00a0(EAFRD) via the 4th<\/sup>\u00a0development axis (the LEADER approach), with the registration part implemented within the framework of a local action group for rural development (LAS Istre).<\/p>\n

However, the collective mark project is not completed yet. So far, the legal and organisational bases have been arranged for licensing persimmon and artichoke producers, olive growers and olive oil producers; but the right to use the mark will soon be extended to mussel farmers, and, hopefully in the near future, also to suppliers of processed agricultural products (fruit- or vegetable-based and other food products) and providers of catering, lodging and tourism services.<\/p>\n
