After 20 years in the office of district farmer, Anita Painhofer no longer stood.

"It was 20 great years and a wonderful time," said Painhofer, looking back on many rural women's days, Advent celebrations, information events and excursions.

She thanked her very much for the appreciation shown to her during this time.

There was also a complete change of leadership among the men.

After three electoral terms or after 15 years, district chairman Georg Zankl left office due to age.

He also looked back on many events, campaigns, district farmer days and excursions.

"I really enjoyed doing it and it was a great year, but now the time has come for the young, for something new and to make room for new ideas," said the outgoing district chairman.
