Viticulture strategies of Tarján in the first half of the 20th century Tamás Móser In the 18th and 19th centuries, Tarján was known primarily as a peasant village. After the Turkish destruction and the settle of German community which was controlled by the Esterházys, a six-year tax exemption, a right for free migration and the opportunity to have a socage was granted the families. The population in the surrounding area was dealing mainly with cereal production, livestock farming and was involved in viticulture, as well. In the early years of the 20th century, the settlement has started to build a close economical and social connection with the mining site of Tata (colonies of MÁK Co.), than later with Tatabánya which is the union of this settlement and three neighboring villages (Alsógalla, Felsőgalla and Bánhida). The phylloxera epidemic has destroyed the previously mentioned thriving wine culture—after World War I Nova (Noah) and later Othello became the dominant vine varieties of the area. Subsequently, this thriving wine culture has not regained its former importance. According to the records of 1913 and 1935, there were only directly growing winegrapes in Tarján. During the restart of wine production, the consumer market of the area has increased, but the wine-making of Tarján remained at a traditional level: non-specialists carried out the plantation and production, and all this remained within the limits of peasant farming. So in the 19th century, wine-making was an important strategy for earning money in Tarján, as compared to other settlements of the estate, which was ended by the phylloxera epidemic. After the replantation of vineyards in the first half of the 20th century, this strategy will produce again important income for the villagers. At this point, due to the changing market conditions, the people of the neighboring mines became the purchasers of the produced wine instead of the estate. In the 1930s and the 1940s, several families in Tarján were producing wine for direct sale, which process was interrupted in the 1960s and the 1970s. Translated by Zsuzsanna Varga
