The government and the Ministry of Agriculture provide the foundations for future agricultural professionals
The knowledge acquired in the field of agriculture always provides a solid foundation and a good livelihood at all times. Because you always have to eat and the raw materials for food have to be produced. Without a functioning, well-producing agriculture, we are vulnerable, said Minister of Agriculture István Nagy at the handover of the renovated building of the Southern ASzC Máté Bereczki Agricultural and Food Technical College in Baja.
