| Summary: | The paper discusses the links of the Hungarian population to agriculture between 2005 and 2021. It discusses the consequences of depeasantisation in recent decades, the decline of small-scale food production (food self-provisioning and subsistence farming) and in the involvement in agriculture. Our analysis is based on statistical data, and a series of representative surveys from 2005, 2015, 2018 and 2021. The results not only show how food production and agricultural involvement has decreased, but also the social patterns of participation and involvement in agriculture. The extremely rapid decline of the agricultural population and the changes in the proportions of participating groups, and in a wider perspective, the consequences of Hungarian depeasantisation in an international comparison and its impact on sustainability and environmental values. |
