Until the 1930s there was in Germany a direct link between nature conservation concepts and the „Heimat“ movement. Indeed, originally, nature conservation was interpreted as aiming mainly at culture preservation, i.e. it was a passive approach. It aimed at establishing a timeless Germanhood through the resentation and visual experience of officially protected single natural monuments such as single trees, monumental rocks and cliffs. During the Republic of Weimar and the Nazi period this pre-eminently pedagogical approach failed because it elicited scant interest in the majority of the population. After 1933 it became clear that ordinary people, although officially members of the political community (Volksgenossen/innen), preferred to spend their leisure time in inns, cinemas and t fairs rather than in the open air to experience nature as an ethnic forming factor. It was at this point in time that the active model of landscape design gathered momentum. From then on, various institutions of the regime and principally Prof. Heinrich Wiepking-Jürgensmann, responsible for landscape modelling in the newly conquered East-European countries, planned to transform all the German agricultural regions into efficient and, as far as possible, nature-conserving landscapes. The highly professional landscape projects designed by the new experts featured aspects of German racial identity which were thereby expected to lead to the development of a racially completely homogenous nation. At that time, under the given historical circumstances, it was impossible to implement the projects. However, it was during the early Federal Republic that this approach gained new strength under the label of “Landespflege”. After 1949, notwithstanding the renaissance of this concept, few innovations were introduced and it was only in the 1960s that the concept of “Landespflege” was reviewed.

The article deals with plant breeding research in various Kaiser-Wilhelm-Institutes during the Nazi era. The German Ministry for Food and Agriculture sponsored this kind of research to a large extent in order to substitute the import of food or raw material. War created the material possibilities for German scientists to secure an advantage in important fields. This included the preferential treatment of research which was considered as relevant for warfare as well as the control of strategically important scientific resources (genetic resources, wild plants) which became available only because of the German occupation of large parts of Eastern Europe. The plundering of scientific institutes in the occupied Eastern territories provided German scientists with a huge amount of very valuable resources for their research. This influenced research questions as well as the choice of scientific objects as can be seen from the example of rubber plant research. The availability of stolen resources in the occupied territories caused a – however short lasting – boom of research on rubber containing plants. Political prescriptions for research were not necessary – not functional – as long as scientists were offered good research and career opportunities such as confiscated buildings, money, professional advancement by new positions in the occupied areas and the possibility to use the scientific results of their colleagues in the occupied countries.

Rural history in the Federal Republic of Germany has been shaped significantly by Günther Franz (1902–1992), Wilhelm Abel (1904-1984) and Friedrich Lütge (1901–1968). They have learned to know each other in the 1930s in the context of the “Arbeitskreis für Bauern- und Agrargeschichte” (Research group for peasant and rural history) initiated in 1935 by the national socialist cabinet ministers Rust and Darré. Günther Franz who had worked on the “Deutsche Bauernkrieg” since 1925/26 joined the NSDAP in 1933 and subsequently the SS in 1935. He became SS-Hauptsturmführer in the Reichssicherheitshauptamt. His research design focused on the political history of German peasants within the framework of a (national socialist) folk history. He did not pay any attention to social stratifications and differentiations within peasantry. Franz has been appointed Professor at Heidelberg University in 1935, followed by chairs at Jena University (1936) and at the “Reichsuniversität” Straßburg in 1941. Franz lost his academic position in 1945 but – according to a recommending testimonial by the noted historian Gerhard Ritter (1889–1967) – has been granted another professorship at the Landwirtschaftliche Hochschule Hohenheim in 1957. Wilhelm Abel joined the NSDAP in 1937 and took the party position of a block leader. He became Professor at Königsberg University in 1941 and at Göttingen University in 1947. His main point of research was the economic history of agricultural production. Before 1933 Friedrich Lütge had been a stern German nationalist and member of the Stahlhelm organisation. He received his first professorship at Leipzig University in 1941 and finally took an academic chair at Munich University in 1947. His main research focused on the legal framework of rural societies in the medieval and early modern periods (i.e. the system of “Grundherrschaft”, which tied peasants to their feudal lords). On the whole, research on German rural history within the National Socialist period as well as within the first two decades of the Federal Republic of Germany is marked by significant continuities in personal respects and partly as regards content.

The principal dilemma of the National Socialists’ agricultural policy was the goal to rise at the same time both farm incomes and domestic agricultural production by increasing land productivity. This attempt to realize two goals with one instrument was rather futile because, given the relatively constant land and capital endowment before the Second World War, every effort to increase land productivity by raising labour intensity inevitably led to a decrease in labour productivity and therefore to decreasing farm wages. After the occupation of Poland the grown land endowment seemed to allow a new solution of this dilemma. A group of agricultural economists under the leadership of Konrad Meyer, probably influenced by the American example, decided to get rid of the traditional standard of performance, this is land productivity, and to concentrate on raising labour productivity instead. Therefore, they planned to increase the average farm size by forcing German farmers from comparatively small and inefficient farms to move to the East.
