| Abstract |
| Small scale farmers are educated and experienced in Hungary. The market for agricultural inputs is developing. Its main problem, however, is financial. The production has decreased significantly and without good machinery, basic fertilizer, quality seeds, effective plant protection etc. the situation could hardly change. Small scale farming is in a difficult situation and the agricultural policy and the market do not accomodate the middle term (2-4 years) planing. This situation is analysed in the paper; the lack of efficient information flow between the policy makers and the farmers is identified to be a major obstacle. The agricultural production must be relatively stable in order to have a relatively stable food production which is very important for the transition process of Hungary. |
