Mikovcová, Alena
The development of scientific institutions and evolution of research were due to the historical differences of both countries and their incompatible development during the Inter-War Period. In 1925, the signing of a Czechoslovak-Polish agreement caused a qualitative wobble in Czechoslovak-Polish scientific cooperation. The 12th International Agricultural Congress in Warsaw in the same time was a breakthrough in bilateral relations in the branch of the agricultural sciences. In 1929, the Krakow sessions of representatives of Czechoslovak and Polish agricultural organizations fixed the first common scientific program of mutual cooperation in the field of agricultural sciences at the level of agricultural research institutes in Poland and Czechoslovakia.

The number of female forestry engineers increased ten times during the period in question in Czechoslovakia. Female graduates had problems to find suitable job until the 1980s. Women forestry engineers earned less than comparably educated men. Distance studies were practically unavailable to women until 1980s.
