Historical background


AGRICULTURAL, HORTICULTURAL, FISHING AND HUNTING SOCIETIES

The Agricultural Societies were free associations which set themselves the task of discussing agricultural theories, perfecting methods, etc., and on the establishment of which the law imposed no other condition than that of obtaining the approval of their statutes by the prefectural authority. Those which deal more especially with practical applications are called agricultural councils..
