Author Description

Excerpt from The State and Agriculture in Hungary: Report of the Minister of Agriculture, Dr. Ignatius Darányi on His Agricultural Administration During the Years 1896-1903 The following pages contain the Official Report to both Houses of the Hungarian Parliament by the Right Honourable Dr. Ignatius Daranyi, late Minister of Agriculture, on the Agricultural Policy administered by him during, his seven years (1896-1903) tenure of office. His tenure of office is admitted by every shade of public opinion in Hungary to have been the most successful in measures partly initiated, partly developed, in the interest of the farming industry. A new era was started and a new spirit awakened in agricultural policy, and this industry, the chief, but yet much neglected, made very great progress in this short time. Revival in agriculture is generally much slower than in any other industry in every country, in consequence of the simple fact, that agriculturists are living generally far apart from each other, and thus have less opportunity of agreeing as to their common difficulties and aims.
