According to the Hrvatska enciklopedija (1999), Bački Petrovac is a town in southern Bačka in Vojvodina. The city had 7,229 inhabitants in 1991. First mentioned in the 14th century, Bački Petrovac is a Slovak cultural center (as Báčsky Petrovec), with a Slovak high school. The first Slovaks settled there in 1745. Bački Petrovac is a hop and sugar-beet production and processing center, with also building materials industry.

The coat of arms of Bački Petrovac is blue with in the center a farmer in a white costume, a red vest, a yellow hat and yellow boots. In his right hand he holds a white scythe with a yellow handle. Below him is a yellow bread-shovel; left and right are plough-irons.
The arms, which seem to be based on a seal from 1787, were granted in 1998.
