Northern (N): Czechoslovakia (NC). Agriculture

1958

A file of correspondence and reports on agricultural matters in Czechoslovakia. Subjects covered in the file include the Czechoslovak response to Soviet proposals for the reorganisation of collective agriculture, which would involve the abolition of tractor stations and the takeover of agricultural machinery by "kolkhozes". Further correspondence concerns Czechoslovak proposals for an agreement on plant health with the United Kingdom, which aims to counter the danger of pests, plant disease, and weeds being imported to other countries in the course of international trade; and a request from the Central Plant Quarantine Laboratory in Brno for official documents on quarantine regulations and a list of injurious insects and plant diseases in Britain. The file also contains the response of British officials to the proposed agreement, and the suggestion that the Czechoslovak government join the European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organisation.
