Branko Hrg (born 26 September 1961) is a Croatian politician and former leader of the Croatian Peasant Party (HSS). He was a member of HSS from 1992 to 2016 and served as a mayor of Križevci from 2001 to 2017.

In January 2012 intra-party elections, Hrg beat former Croatian Minister of Tourism Damir Bajs with 555 votes over 374.

On March 19 2016 he lost, with 188 votes, in the first round of intra-party elections, against Krešo Beljak who got 339 votes and Nenad Matić who got 225 votes, making him no longer the President of HSS, or politically relevant.
