history
The Bavarian Farmers' Association was founded on September 7, 1945 in Munich by, among others, Alois Schlögl , the later Minister of Agriculture Joseph Baumgartner and the later Raiffeisen President Michael Horlacher and was granted corporate rights on November 29, 1945 by the Bavarian state government . On 29 October 1946, the then signed Bavarian Prime Minister Wilhelm Hoegner the Regulation No 106 on the tasks of the Bavarian Farmers 'Association. : Taking "The Bavarian Farmers' Association as a professional organization of Bavarian agriculture hereafter enlightening and advisory capacity, the promotion of agriculture as a whole on fachlichem, professional and economic area. For the purposes of this ordinance, agriculture also includes forestry in private, community, foundation and corporate forests and horticulture. "
The farmers 'women are represented in the Bavarian Farmers' Association by the rural women group. This is led by the country farmer.
In 1948 the farmer's school was founded in Ottobeuren . In 1950 the school for women was founded on the Hartschimmelhof . The Bavarian Farmers' Association was a driving force in 1955 when an adequate agricultural income was enshrined as a political goal in the Agriculture Act and then also in the EEC Treaty. In 1974 the educational organization of the Bavarian Farmers' Association was founded. In 1976 the educational facility of the Bavarian Farmers' Association was opened in Herrsching . It was the amalgamation of the farmer's school and the farmer's school. Since 2005 the educational establishment has been renamed "House of Bavarian Agriculture Herrsching".
The changes in the agricultural environment and the associated structural change in agriculture is one of the most pressing problems that the association is dealing with. In 1949 there were 391,000 farms over two hectares, in 1971 there were around 291,000 and in 2012 around 110,000 farms in Bavaria.
