Abstract
Abstract To evaluate the achievements and failures of National Socialists’ agrarian policy we compute and compare average annual growth rates of value added, factor inputs and total factor productivity of German agriculture for the three periods 1925-1929/32 (Weimar Republic), 1933-1938 (Third Reich), and 1950-1959 (Federal Republic of Germany). This long-term quantitative analysis shows that National Socialists′ agrarian policy considerably slowed down modernization by decreasing growth rates of both technical progress and mechanization.
