(The homepage is under continuous construction!)
 

With the aid of the illustrative material here, our aim is to increase the knowledge, both of nature and environmental protection as well as landscape management, of the students of the Institute of  Environment and Landscape Management of the Gödöllő Agricultural University. In the nature conservation section some species which should be learnt are included; the list will be continuously enlarged. We also plan to demonstrate the morphological characteristics of the most important plant families, as well as showing some plants which are protected in Hungary. In the environmental protection and landscape management part, the most important problems of these scientific fields will be illustrated with practical examples. Our current illustrative material contains pictures and descriptions of plant species as well as material concerning some important environmental issues.
