This article continues the series “The Story of one Department” published in the Agronomy
collection in 2022, 2024, and 2025. It focuses on the period 1976–1989 in the history
of the Department of Grassland Husbandry and Botany at the Estonian Agricultural
Academy. The study is based on historical sources from the Estonian National Archives,
the Archives of the Estonian University of Life Sciences, various materials preserved at
the Chair of Crop Science, and the memoirs of former employees. The organizational
life cycle consists of three main phases: growth (development), maturity (stability),
and decline. The Department of Grassland Husbandry and Botany reached the maturity
stage in the late 1970s, and this phase lasted until the end of the Soviet occupation in
the early 1990s. Despite certain setbacks—most notably the death of A. Sau and the
resulting organizational difficulties—the period was characterized by relatively stable
development and may therefore be regarded as a golden era in the Department’s history.
In teaching, the primary focus was on improving educational quality, training young
academic staff, and strengthening cooperation between staff and students. In research,
the main priorities were the expansion and deepening of scientific work, the continuation
of contract-based applied research, and the establishment of a Plant Biochemistry
Laboratory.
