Abstract: Abstract More than forty years have passed since the ending of the Second World War in 1945 and these years have considerably changed the Hungarian economy. From being an underdeveloped agricultural country Hungary has become a moderately developed industrial country, and the life of the people in the country has also changed. These past decades were above all years of industrialisation, but Hungarian agriculture also maintained its importance. It can indeed be said, without any agricultural chauvinism, that among the recent achievements of the Hungarian economy it has been the achievements of agriculture that have really attracted wide-ranging international interest and appreciation. In this study we shall examine the development of Hungarian agriculture in comparison with the development of industry, approaching the question from the side of agriculture. We shall try to show the most important characteristics of development of the two sectors and their effects on each other, as well as their future prospects.
