About agriculture in Novalja

Located on the northern part of Pag Island in the Lika-Senj County, Novalja is surrounded by a unique Mediterranean landscape characterized by karst terrain and rocky pastures. The rural area around the town is defined by its proximity to the Adriatic Sea and the stark, wind-swept beauty of the island's interior.

Agriculture in the region is dominated by sheep farming, particularly the indigenous Pag sheep, which produce the milk for the famous local cheese. Small-scale viticulture and olive groves are also prevalent, with hardy varieties adapted to the saline air and rocky soil. Aromatic herbs like sage and immortelle grow wild and are harvested for essential oils.

Farm workers and agronomists can find seasonal opportunities primarily during the spring lambing season and the autumn olive and grape harvests. The work often involves traditional methods in a challenging but scenic environment. Professionals in the dairy industry or sustainable Mediterranean agriculture will find the local traditions and specialized production techniques particularly interesting.
