10149377	History of agriculture in Argentina History of agriculture in Argentina Since its formal organization as a national entity in the second half of the 17th century, Argentina followed an agricultural and livestock export model of development with a large concentration of crops in the fertile Pampas, particularly in and around Buenos Aires Province, as well as in the littoral of the Paraná and Uruguay Rivers. Largely limited to stock-raising activities and centered on the export of cattle hides and wool, Argentine agriculture languished during the colonial era and well into the 19th century. The need for intensive agriculture was recognized as early as 1776	History of agriculture in Argentina
10149378	. Aside from the yerba mate harvest in the northeast, attempts to develop it suffered setbacks due to internal strife and lack of skill and machinery. The pastoral economy was initially constructed around wool exports. Nineteenth century. The first shorthorn bull arrived in the 1820s. Hereford cattle followed in 1862 and Aberdeen Angus in the 1870s. Argentina was seen as particularly suitable for cattle ranching and by 1920 it was the most important beef-producing country in the world. In the 1930s more than 90% of the beef exports went to the United Kingdom. The development of a cohesive state after 	History of agriculture in Argentina
10149379	1852 led to the 1868 creation of Argentina's first Institute of Agronomy and the 1875 arrival of the first intact grain shipment from Argentina to Great Britain sparked a wave of local investment in cultivation and silos and British investment in railways and finance. The 1876 development of refrigerated beef shipping, likewise, led to the modernization of that sector. Twentieth century. The acreage devoted to wheat grew from 3.2 million in 1890 to 15 million in 1910 but it was still less significant than ranching. American companies moved into the Argentinean trade in 1907 and by 1918 they had 	History of agriculture in Argentina
10149380	68.1% of the export market. By the 1920s, Argentine exports reached US$1 billion annually, of which 99% was agricultural. Maize and wheat had, by then, largely overshadowed beef production and exports. In 1926 there were 17 abattoirs, capable of slaughtering 27,500 cattle, 50,000 sheep and 4,000 pigs daily. Cattle were inspected twice before slaughter and once afterwards. 300 veterinary surgeons and 300 assistants inspected the cattle exports These developments were accompanied by a wave of European immigration and investments in education and infrastructure, all of which nearly reinvented Argentine society. Agricultural development, in turn, led to the first meaningful 	History of agriculture in Argentina
10149381	industrial growth, which, during the 1920s, was mainly centered on food processing and increasingly involved United States capital. Agricultural exports provided the Argentine Treasury with generous surpluses during both World Wars and helped finance a boom in machinery and consumer goods imports between the wars and after 1945. The creation of a single grain purchaser (the IAPI) by President Juan Perón produced mixed results, often shortchanging growers even as it benefited them with investments in infrastructure, machinery and pest control. Since 1960, according to Viglizzo: Policies friendly to industrial investment during the Arturo Frondizi's tenure led to the establishment 	History of agriculture in Argentina

Cost-cutting measures by the Juan Carlos Onganía regime led to the closure of 11 large sugar mills in 1966, however, even as agriculture generally continued to grow.. Domestic austerity policies pursued by the last dictatorship and Raúl Alfonsín's government led to record trade surpluses during much of the 1976–90 era, led by agricultural exports and, notably, the sudden boom in soybean cultivation, which displaced sunflower seeds as the leading oilseed crop in 1977. A severe 	History of agriculture in Argentina
10149383	shortage of domestic credit hampered the sector somewhat, however, as growing harvests soon outstripped transport and storage capacity. A tie of the Argentine peso to the U.S. dollar implemented by economist Domingo Cavallo in 1991 reduced export competitiveness somewhat, though the resulting stability led to record investments in agricultural infrastructure and led to strong growth in harvests during the late 1990s. These trends were accompanied by the federal approval of GMO crops in 1995. A devaluation of the peso in 2002 and a sustained rise in commodity prices since has further encouraged the sector, leading to record production and exports	History of agriculture in Argentina

These, in turn, became a point of contention when President Cristina Kirchner advanced a hike in export tariffs, leading to the 2008 Argentine government conflict with the agricultural sector; the tariff increase was defeated in the Senate when Vice President Julio Cobos cast an unexpected, tie-breaking vote against the measure.

Biography. Technology. He attended Berzsenyi Dániel High School (where he met George Soros and George Klein), then to the Budapest University of Technology: first as a general engineer, then as a weak-current electrical engineer at the Faculty of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering (where he worked as a demonstrator at Charles Simonyi's department for two years).

At the end of November 1956 he left Hungary and moved to London. Dennis Gabor read a publication of his and, on the basis of it, offered him a research position in his laboratory, where he was working on the development of the flat television picture tube – he was aided in that by an invention of Zollman's, which he expounded in his doctoral thesis. He then joined a mechanical engineering company as a development engineer and even became its 	Péter Zollman

He went on to work on remote control of tunnelling and mining machinery, including the large electron-proton collider at CERN near Geneva and the Channel Tunnel, but his equipment was also used in the Soviet Union on hundreds of tunnels for the Baikal–Amur Mainline. Their designs and products were sold in America, Germany, France and Japan. Correcting any possible 	Péter Zollman

In the course of his work, he was able to negotiate in four languages, by his account, thanks to his upbringing in Hungary, although it was in England where he learned French. More than a hundred of his patents have been known to the world. Translation. In 1993, after a sudden epiphany, he gave up the active management of his company and started translating poetry, essentially because he wanted to make Hungarian poetry accessible to his non-Hungarian	Péter Zollman
10149395	-speaking daughters. He felt that there were very few translations that made Hungarian poetry accessible to English speakers, so as a trial he first translated Mihály Babits' poem The Danaïds," which he admitted he did with relative ease and good results. In the years that followed, he translated hundreds of more serious poems, mainly those in which formal accuracy was important. He found that form was important in Hungarian poetry, more so than in English poetry, for instance. As he wrote: "translating Hungarian poetry is such a pleasure that it gilds my life." George Klein, in a study of Attila  József in "Pietà" (), quoted the opening lines of the poem "My Homeland" as untranslatable into any other language. Zollman translated them in more than forty forms, hoping that one of them will turn out really beautiful. It was thanks to him that the Anglophone world became acquainted with the poems of Dániel Berzsenyi, Attila József, Dezső Kosztolányi, Ágnes Nemes Nagy, , Sándor Kányádi, and , among others. In addition, he translated "Csongor and Tünde" by Mihály Vörösmarty, "Laodameia" by Mihály Babits and "Duke Bluebeard's Castle" by Béla Balázs. One of his most significant works is his translation of János Arany's  poem "The Bards of Wales," which formed the basis for the eponymous composition of Welsh composer Karl Jenkins' cantata, performed to great acclaim in the UK and Budapest.
