In agriculture: Structural transformation of rural idylls have become rare in the Federal Republic. Only the city can dream of romance, he plays Bauer during the holidays. To streamline, mechanize, viable economies think farmers - in all European countries. Their prosecutions: to produce more food with less workers of but improved technology.
The structural change in agriculture forcing some farmers to give up his profession. Every day, 225 farmers leave the own farm as in the Federal Republic. From 1961 to 1970, the number of people working in the German Agriculture 3.4 fell million to 2 million. In France during the same period by 4 million to 2.9 million. Agricultural policy, which sees itself as part of a comprehensive social policy, must therefore support farmers in this transition period with targeted measures. International bodies help to find solutions to problems.
Therefore, 'Adaptation of agriculture in developed countries', said the most important issue of the 8 FAO Regional Conference for Europe in Munich. 28 European and 7 non-European States took part in this Conference of the food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations - short called FAO -. Federal Agriculture Minister Ertl pointed out as a host on the global importance of the measures taken in Europe.
' Many situations are today completed in European agriculture, which also are engaged, technically and organizationally-wide parts of the world in the future. Elsewhere, the experience here can become valuable decision-making AIDS. I think of it as one of the main tasks of the FAO to deepen this experience exchange and coordinate. In our country, for example, we want to get the powerful companies in the future and socially tolerable to make the necessary structural transformation process. Where always today and in the future farmers to not only problems coming to, targeted, State action is essential.'

This sport: What do you mean Super Vau?
Sunday morning - camp life at a racetrack in Germany. Automobile races, generations spectator sport on the way to the national sport. VW was the impetus - provided technical assistance: formula Super Vau, the youngest among the slope as a result, itself based series parts. The Volkswagen 412, gearbox and brakes of the VW engine delivers 1600 shell and chassis constructed companies from all over Europe, including England's gerühmte workshops Lola and Royale.
Last check-up on the circuit of Hockenheim. The equation of 'fast car - beautiful girls' is also in the new formula. Super Vau has established itself as the elevator upward. Contracts in the higher classes waving ambitious talents: more engine and make more money - formula I world champion Emerson Fittipaldi a curfew starting money stroked a, when he joined the formula for Hockenheim, Germany.
In Hockenheim at the penultimate round of the Championship alone 14 Grand Prix cavorted pilots on the fast course. You pace and undercut the lap record in front of 80,000 spectators in the same series.
Recharge your batteries and second inspection. The driver is evidence. Fittipaldi also controls his Lotus at the boxes. He is the big favorite of the formula II in Hockenheim, Germany.
Erporbt for the first time in Hockenheim to win time: the electronic adjustment of ignition and carburetor. More than the formula Vau engine has with 2000 cubic centimeters 400 formula II engine enough to double the Horsepower rating. The machine turns on up to 9,000 tours. Fittipaldi did not at the stable direction. The big star wacky his Lotus and was eliminated in the 9th round.
Manfred Schurti wanted to do better in its class. The Liechtenstein belongs to the ACEs of the formula Vau and controls the formula II. His VW engine produces more than 120 HP. Fiercest competitor: the 23 year-old Helmut Koinigg from Austria. Super Vau car before the start. At Hockenheim, the racing competition to the VW disputed Gold Cup.
Off-road in the tradition of the Kübelwagen. But the underdog wins back the exclusion to the field. Little later: a press photographer is victim of occupational risk. A schleudernder car hits him on the edge of the runway. He wants to stand up, but the helper hold him back: the car broke his legs. Manfred Schurti front controls his car after. The top box is still together. On the fast circuit, the Super Vaus reach more than 200 kilometres per hour. Still, Schurti is forward. 22,000 mark he had cost himself his vehicle, whose performance figures differ little from a formula II race car: speeds up the Super Vau to 100 in 4.5 seconds. His top speed: 225 km/h.
The body transformed the brave everyday car for the seeming slope Hunter in frame or shell. All over the world, young talented drivers use the chance to go financial application on rubbing shoulders with relative low with the prestigious runway stars today.
Change of leadership before the goal: not Schurti but Koinigg wins the final race. But Schurti receives the Gold Cup as the winner of baking Dolon, a top manager of VW. Young car enthusiasts from Liechtenstein may celebrate their compatriot - not without deeper meaning: the Schurti is the only TUV officers of the Principality of Liechtenstein.
