Study on a gastro-touristical project in the Hungary-Romania cross-border co-operation programme

The objective of this study is the discussion of the experiences on a Hungary-Romania cross-border project which was implemented in Arad, Békés, Csongrád and Timiç counties in 2012-2013. University of Szeged, University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine of the Banat in Timiçoara and two Romanian and one Hungarian fanner associations were involved in collecting special local products and recipes, traditional cultural and gastronomic events, as well as restaurants and accommodations. As coordinators of the project we gathered several experiences. SWOT analysis was carried out to understand the circumstances and the advantages and disadvantages of the regions. The main conclusion of our experiences was the following: it seems there are more things which are connect than which are separate people in this border regions. The project was financed by the HU-RO CBC Programme (The role of special local foods and events in development of local tourism - HURO/1001/213/2.1.2 - FEDERTO)

The main chemical composition parameters of pork : review

The main aim of the study was to gather information on the chemical composition of the meat of pig, the pork. Data of several authors were summarized. The data of protein, the total fat, the SFA, MUFA and PUFA content were collected and also those minerals which have great importance on human alimentation. The level of total protein content of pig meat seems very stabile (19-24%) and hardly depend on the genetical background and the environment of the animals. The total fat content was between 1-15%. The results in fatty acid composition showed the following: among the saturated fatty acids the palmitic acid had the highest rate (21-25%) and the ratio of eicosanoic acid was less than 1%. Among monounsaturated fatty acids the palmitoleic acid level was remarkable high. The rate of linolic acid was outstanding in polyunsaturated fatty acids. Among the studied elements (Ca, P, Mg, Fe, I, Se, Mn, Cu, Zn) the iron can have a special role, because it is an important trait of the iron in the meat, that greater amount of it (15-35%) is utilized during the absorption, while only 1-5% of the iron content of the foods is made up of plants

Technological recommendations in rabbit production

In the last ten years a number of research were done and articles were published in order to improve or change the housing conditions of rabbits. These studies focus on the customer needs and changes in expectations based usually on animal welfare. During farm visits we found that the housing circumstances among those factors which are emphasized individually or jointly appeared in the everyday life of rabbit farming (for example: optimal micro-climate, cage floor space, type of floor, keeping mode, environmental enrichment, etc.). In our work we tried to determine the advantages and disadvantages of each procedure. In many cases it is difficult to create perfect coherence with the ideas of animal rights, animal needs and economic interests of the farmers. The number of results and ideas for implementation of all the correct procedures is so great that it is certainly impossible to keep them a time and place in a single technology. Of course, if the changes are generated by the consumer demands, then the farmer has to adapt to expectations in order to keep the market (and sometimes ignoring some other aspects)

The marketing of hunting tourism in South-East Hungary

The aim of this study was to highlight certain aspects concerning the hunting tourism activity in the Southern Great Plain Region in Hungary. The study is focused on the hunting tourism services provided both for domestic and foreign hunters (form of hunting, game species, guiding, accommodation, catering, etc.) by hunting associations and other enterprises and their appearance on the Internet. A SWOT analysis was carried out on the offers of hunting tourism activities and its marketing. The developed marketing communication is not widespread at these regions, because only a few hunting lodges are advertised and can be found information on the Internet. It is more complicated to find websites about specifically the hunting lodges, and not just some words about them on the websites of hunting associations. On the other hand, some places have a well-managed website with adequate information, online booking, GPS coordination, and last but not least, an attracting design. A part of the hunting tourism providers still do not have any advertisements, their business is based on their previous partnership

A vadászat és vadgazdálkodás társadalmi megítélése Csongrád megyében

Nowadays, there is an increasing debate and negative campaign about the hunting and wildlife management first of all from outsiders, from incompetent people. It is interesting that a few decades ago hunters were honoured by the public, and they were envied by many people. The situation and the public opinion have changed for today. In the recent study we looked for answers to the following questions: 1. How the awareness formed in the different age groups of local population in Csongrád county? 2. Whether are they familiar with the hunters' tasks, responsibilities and the importance of it? Children in the age of primary and secondary school and adults were interviewed by questionnaires. Different questionnaires were compiled for every age group including questions for measuring the general awareness and special knowledge on the topic. The results of the survey could help in the development of knowledge and public opinion even in adult or childhood, and the reputation of hunters and wildlife managers maybe could restored
