As part of the autumn conference in Pflach, there was a significant new election, in which Markus Rid was elected as the new district farmer's chairman for the Reutte district. RID is supported by Thomas Riedmann, his new deputy. Both candidates received unanimous approval from the voters, which reflects the great appreciation for their services.

Christian Angerer, the outgoing district farmer chairman, handed over his office with warm words. "We are heard as agriculture in the district and our farmers' families are valued with their work," said Angerer. He emphasized the value of cooperation with partners in the region and thanked various actors, including press representatives, hunters and mayors, for the good cooperation. He said positively about his successor and wished Rid every success.

important topics and speakers of the conference

The conference was accompanied by Agriculture Minister Norbert Tettschnig, which gave interesting insights into current political issues. He spoke about the coalition talks in Vienna and the urgency to send representatives for important topics such as the renaturation and dealing with wolves to Brussels. These discussions are of great relevance for the rural population and testify to the need that agricultural issues are heard at the national and European level.

During the event in Pflach, Hermann Gahr, who retired after 25 years in the National Council, was also thanked. Gahr was recognized for his open ear and intensive support from the rural population. "Dear Hermann, you have always worked for our concerns with full commitment," said district chairman Hannes Partl in his acceptance speech. This shows how important the connection between political representation and the rural community is.

The committed discussion in the outside sets important signals for agriculture and shows the determined attitude of the new management team to address the challenges and pursue common goals. With these changes it is hoped to be a strong voice for the needs of the farmers in the Reutte district.
