„Ha így tenne valamennyi megye…” Gyümölcstermesztési törekvések Csík vármegyében 1876–1918 és 1940–1945 között
„If Only all Counties Would Do the Same…” Pomology Efforts in the Old Ciuc (Csík) County between 1876-1918 and 1940-1945.

Summary/Abstract: The historical Seat of the Székely Land, with its settlements along the headwaters of Mureş and Olt and its affluents, at the East border of Transylvania, between 1876-1918 and 1940-1945, was a county of Hungary. Even nowadays, in the public opinion, the high mountains and woodlands of Ciuc are inappropiate for pomology. The author in his study takes in consideration the pomology efforts of the mentioned years. His cultural history review lightens the fact, that despite the general opinion, the spreading of rational pomology of the old Ciuc County hold the first place not only in Transylvania, but in the whole country. This fact can be also found in the letters of the greatest pomologist of the time, Máté Bereczki from Mezőkovácsháza, who after seeing the initiatives from Ciuc, wrote with hanker: „If only all counties would do the same (…) our inland pomology would revive in only a few decades.”
