Countrywide Events See also our friends: send this story printer-friendly reply to article Culture minister: It's a long-distance run By Saša Petrášová and Zuzana Habšudová Spectator Staff photo: photo: TASR LITERARY historian Rudolf Chmel never wanted to enter politics and never liked administrative work. Now he occupies the chair of the culture minister and administers what is considered to be one of the most neglected spheres in the country - culture. "After the elections [last September], representatives from all parties of the current coalition put pressure on me to accept the post. The position fell to our party because other parties were not too interested in it," he said. After half a year in the job, during which time he got to know the workings of the ministry's machinery, Chmel realised how heterogeneous, fragmented, and, above all, underfinanced the Slovak cultural sphere is. Still considering himself an independent intellectual despite his position, the nominee of the party run by TV Markíza founder Pavol Rusko is making it a priority to free culture from political and ideological influences, and to increase interest for it at home and abroad.

THE STRAWBERRY CULTURE IN THE SLOVAK REPUBLIC doc. Ing. Ján MATUŠKOVIÈ, PhD. The department of pomology, wine-growing and enology The Faculty of Horticulture and landscape engineering The Slovak Agricultural University NITRA A. Hlinka 2, 949 76 Nitra, Slovakia THE HISTORICAL SURVEY OF THE HARVEST AREAS AND YIELDS OF STRAWBERRY IN SLOVAKIA Slovakia, which is situated in the centre of Europe with the continental climate, has its specific cultivation conditions. Strawberry can be cultivated more or less practically on the whole territory. From the big strawberry areas I can mention Bratislava and surroundings, Šurany, Nové Zámky, Levoèa, Liptovský Mikuláš, Trenèín, Bojnice and Prievidza. From the historic survey of the harvest areas and yields in Slovakia, we can see from 1963 up to the present time: the increase of the harvest areas for 10 times the increase of the yields per hectare for 2.5 times and the total yields increase in tons for 24.8 times. We could be satisfied with this development seemingly. But, on the contrary, after the political and economical changes in 1989 and achieving independence in Slovakia, some damping has been arisen in both cultivation and generous works. To make the strawberry cultivation more vivid and pleasing expects: The proposal (financially interesting) and the virosisless biomass sufficiency (plants) with the help of the meristem cultures. We have confirmed this in our experiments with the variety of 'Senga Sengana' with the yield of 23.1 t.ha
