16 - 3 - In particular, this flat-rate agreement provided that the state administration in Moravia of the accident insurance institution in Brno paid the insurance contributions for the agricultural machinery of small farmers / extent of the area up to 25 and 45 ha, depending on the growing area / with a total amount of 300.oooK per year, so that the small farmers were free of contributions and the institution, on the other hand, spared the manipulative side of the collection of the insurance premiums for around 165.00o agricultural machinery. In the case of the accident insurance institution for Bohemia in Prague, the state was so that the insurance contributions for agricultural machinery were collected by the municipalities on the basis of leverists by the agricultural landowners, whereby the owner of the agriculture and his wife were included in the insurance with a however inadequately fictitious annual work earnings.
