  This paper intends to give an overview on some results of our studies carried out on the public opinion of the above aspects (settlements’
  comfort level and the use of renewable energy sources) directly or indirectly linked to the topic of climate change and possible adaptations.
  These studies were carried out by applying questionnaire survey in the (altogether 25) settlements of the Gyöngyös Micro-region.
  Knowledge on general human perceptions related to climate change and its impacts is considered to be important as it should advance the
  elaboration of adaptation and applied scientific works. They are highly required as rural areas, due to their closer relationship (dependence)
  to the physical environment, are more susceptible to changes resultant from the climate change with their possibilities to adaptation also
  being impeded.
  The beauty of environment plays an important role in the settlements studied within the micro-region with more than two third of pollees
  opting the environment as a factor they most proud of, especially among those residing in the villages for more than 10 years. It can be
  presumed that any change in this environment would greatly impact their everyday life and emotional relationship to their home villages. The
  overall picture after analysing the public opinion on the use of renewable energy source (as possible way of adaptation to the impacts of
  climate change) is rather controversial. Even basic knowledge and information are limited regarding the relevant technologies calling
  attention to the importance of raising environmental awareness and providing full information seems to be essential and should be
  implemented, through the media and education.

  Our objective was to analyse the situation of Hungarian language agricultural higher education in Romania. Our analyses have been focused mainly on Kovászna county. Following the evaluation of the characteristics of the county, we assessed the situation of Hungarian language higher education in Romania. History is considered important, because Hungarian language agricultural higher education goes back to the 1860s. The best solution for measuring the current reputation was the completion of questionnaires, which was done by 140 randomly selected people in Kovászna county. Following the evaluation and analysis of the questionnaires we found that local agricultural education, plant production and livestock farming are important activities for the locals. However, it is sure that even if they are satisfied with the education, they consider continuous development very important, since it would be a major help for the employment and subsistence of fresh graduates in Kovászna county.

  As a PhD student I have studied the role of motivation within Hungarian agriculture among leaders of different levels and in several kind of organisations in order to find out the significance of various elements contributing to a motivated leaders and manpower.
  450 respondents were asked to describe their motivational situation by filling in a questionnaire.

  Pecuniary rewards are the most important incitement to  motivation within all categories of leaders followed by responsibility and result feedback. The possibility of punishment and job enrichment however, was not essential. Among limited corporation leaders result feedback and improvement of work conditions were the outmost source to motivation. Among cooperative leaders aim definitions and improvement of work condition were considered as the most important contribution to motivation. In their opinion punishment and job enrichment could not motivate.
