The present paper offers a brief preliminary assessment of the tenders submitted for the
Scattered Farm Development Programme invited in August 2011. Within the framework of
this, a statistical analysis was prepared based on basic data about the successful tenders,
and a series of semi-structured interviews was conducted with professionals engaged in the
topic and committed to the problem of farms. Both in the opinion of the interviewees and
according to our own notion, the Farm Development Programme is one of the most
important milestones in the Hungarian rural development. Partly resulting from its
objectives, which focuses on saving a type of settlement regarded as a Hungaricum, and
partly because it may be regarded as the first national value-added to the support schemes
under the CAP.
