Summary/Abstract: When due to failure of crops, plagues and wars Dubrovnik could not supply in the overseas lands (in the Southern Italy - Apulia and Bari, and at the Peloponnesus - Patras and Clarenza) the necessary quantities of the most important crop of feed its population, the City turned to its closer hinterland - the Neretva River region - and obtained it there. Private persons were exclusively responsible for bringing the grain in the City, and in majority of the cases it was wheat, from the Neretva River region at the beginning of the thirties, in the second part of the forties and in the middle of the sixties of the XIV century.
