Značilnosti gospodarjenja brkinskih kmetij od 1800 do 2020 na primeru Sabonj

Vičič, Tjaša (avtor), Potočnik Slavič, Irma (mentor), Zwitter, Žiga (mentor)

V zaključni nalogi smo preučevali spremembe načina gospodarjenja kmetij v Sabonjah (Brkini) med letoma 1800 in 2020. Z analizo izbranih arhivskih virov, statističnih podatkov in drugih podatkovnih baz ter intervjujev, izvedenih v Sabonjah, smo želeli pridobiti karseda realne podatke o gospodarjenju tamkajšnjih kmetij in o njegovem zgodovinskem razvoju. Seznanili smo se tudi s sodobnimi izzivi kmetov na obravnavanem območju. Sabonje smo izbrali, ker je glede na število prebivalcev (okoli 60 v letu 2020) kmetijska dejavnost v naselju izredno živa. Po tem se Sabonje razlikujejo od večine drugih naselij v Brkinih, za katera je značilno opuščanje kmetijske dejavnosti. Poleg relativno neugodnih naravnih razmer za kmetovanje (velik naklon, za kmetijsko obdelavo težje prsti) je območje podvrženo praznjenju naselij in staranju prebivalstva. Neurejeno lastništvo parcel in razdrobljena zemljiškoposestna struktura onemogočata komasacije in hkrati otežujeta širitev kmetijske dejavnosti. Po izgubi več kot dvestoletne tradicije tržnih povezav s Trstom in Reko so Brkini tako rekoč »obstali«. V preučevanem obdobju smo prepoznali nekatere zgodovinske dogodke in procese, ki so vplivali na razvoj kmetijstva. Kmete danes najbolj obremenjuje trženje pridelkov, saj jim denimo majhnost kmetij in posledično majhna količina tržno zanimivih pridelkov onemogočata konkuriranje z večjimi slovenskimi ponudniki. Največji potencial vidijo v trženju izdelkov pod skupno brkinsko znamko, a do njene realizacije še ni prišlo.

Izvleček

In the final thesis, we studied changes in the farm economy of Sabonje (Brkini Hills) between 1800 and 2020. With the analysis of selected archival sources, statistical data, other databases and interviews carried out in Sabonje, we wanted to provide in-depth insights into the state of farm economy and its historical evolution. We also got acquainted with the recent challenges farmers in the area have been facing. Considering the fact that the settlement of Sabonje has only 60 inhabitants (in year 2020), there are evidences of dynamic farm economy. This is the difference between Sabonje and the majority of villages in the Brkini Hills – the later have been characterized by abandonment of agriculture. The Brkini Hills have relatively unfavorable natural conditions for farming (large slope inclination, heavy soils for agricultural cultivation), the area is subject to population aging and depopulation. Furthermore, land consolidation and enlarged agricultural production are not possible due to the unclear ownership rights over parcels and the fragmented land ownership structure. Brkini Hills experienced more than two centuries of vivid trade connections with Trieste and Rijeka; the loss of these trade connections drove the Brkini Hills to stagnation. This study identifies several historical events and processes that influenced the development of agriculture. Nowadays farmers confront with several hurdles with selling and advertising local products. Limited size of utilised agricultural land and, consequently, limited quantities of marketable crops are two out of many factors affecting the modest role of farmers from Sabonje on the local markets. Local farmers see the greatest market niche in selling their products under the common Brkini Hills brand that has not been established so far.
