!!!Landwirtschaftsgesellschaften

Landwirtschaftsgesellschaften (Agricultural Societies, also called 
Ackerbaugesellschaften or Agrarian Societies): On the model of Britain 
and Germany, the second half of the 18th century saw the establishment 
of associations of aristocratic landowners and interest groups 
dedicated to farming experiments, publications and education in 
Austria. The  most important such association was the k.k. 
Landwirtschaftsgesellschaft in Vienna (founded in 1807 and dissolved 
in 1938), which owed its creation mainly to P.  Jordan.
