The development resulted in a completely new facility, offering faster, more efficient, and higher-level operational capabilities for the region. The former station operated in the...
The opening of a new nursery is more than the inauguration of a building — it brings real, tangible change to the everyday lives of families with young children and strengthens the entire community in the long term. Built with funding from the European Union, the brand-new nursery has welcomed children from Balatonszentgyörgy and nearby communities since September 2024. The facility makes it significantly easier for parents to return to work or manage daily responsibilities,...
For a long time, sorghum was known mainly as the raw material for making brooms. Today, however, it is becoming an increasingly important forage crop. As weather patterns and natural conditions continue to shift — with more frequent droughts, heatwaves, and shrinking arable land — traditional farming knowledge alone is no longer enough.

Today, it feels only natural that a dual two-lane bypass runs along the western edge of Székesfehérvár, carrying the traffic of Main Road No. 8 around the city. Those who use it every day may hardly remember that this stretch of road was completed only a few years ago. He looked at the worn grass and the dusty wheel tracks beside it, searching for a stable spot to set up the leveling tripod. To his...
