Dear members,
We would like to share some news with you.
Tamás Tóth (Zichyfarm) Young Generation member will now support Béla Jankovich, ELO delegate and board member, in the ELO collaboration. We are very pleased that Tamás has proactively come forward and wish him every success!
Save the date
This year, our Maintusz Autumn Conference will take place later than usual. Please make a note of the date: 4-5 December 2025, as requested by some: close to the weekend.
Of course, we hope that our new state secretaries will attend (Dr. Zsolt Felmann was replaced in March this year). Our board has already met with the new officials to ensure that Maintusz's good relationship with the ministry continues. We very much hope that this will give members the opportunity to get to know the state secretaries and at the same time obtain information about the KAP 2025 and the prospects for 2026, how the Ministry is preparing for the elections, and what legal means it intends to use to ensure that its long-term goals are achieved.
Furthermore, our board plans to invite the Agricultural Chamber NAK (Nemzeti Agrárgazdasági Kamara), so that members have the opportunity to get to know the chamber and what it has to offer better.
The programme is still being planned, but the date is set for Thursday and Friday, 4-5 December 2025, as always at the Magyar Tudományos Akadémia.
Kind regards,
Your board
