About us

As early as the start of the 1800s our forebears were studying at Hungary's agricultural colleges, and came away with exceptional expertise. It put them among the first anywhere in the world to approach farming at an advanced, scientific level. They always strove for innovation, forward-looking farming and professionalism — an outlook our own way of thinking still faithfully reflects.

What links the past and the present is passion. It is what it takes to strive for perfection and efficiency always, whatever the circumstances. Only with that inner drive can we reach our goals.

Yet today's complex, changing world sets a great many challenges for the people who make their living from the land, too. On the one hand, wars of every kind make the economy chaotic and unpredictable; on the other, we also have to contend with a climate change that is now tangible and brings extreme weather with it.

To rise above all this, it is no longer sufficient merely to do our own work well enough. It calls for a higher level of cooperation and solidarity within the farming community, so that we support one another — even if only by sharing experience. That is why we offer our help, and we believe that if that cooperation comes about, we will all find it easier to clear the extraordinary hurdles of the present together.

Our history

vitéz Csák László

vitéz Csák László

Arable farmer, college lecturer

For what he did in the First World War, Csák László was admitted to the Order of Vitéz founded by Miklós Horthy, and with the title came one of the vitéz holdings parcelled out of the archducal estate — the one beside the village of Hegyeshalom.

Before the Second World War he was already growing arable crops and open-field horticultural produce and keeping livestock, and alongside the practice he taught the theory of it at the Royal Hungarian College of Agriculture in Magyaróvár.

The brothers, Ifj. Csák László and Dr. Csák András Máté, won back the land lost after the war under the compensation scheme. So Mustang Kft., owned by the Csák family, could take up its work on the old estate and on the newly enlarged one alike.

Ifj. Csák László directed the estate from the agricultural side for as long as his health allowed, while his younger brother, Dr. Csák András Máté, saw to running the company. Dr. Csák András Máté was admitted to the Order of Vitéz in his own right as well, having played his part in the fighting for the country in 1956.

Running the company since 2015

The third generation was born into a love of the land and inherited what their forebears knew about working it — knowledge they keep current with their university studies. Máté read general agricultural engineering at the Faculty of Agricultural and Food Sciences of the University of West Hungary, then stayed on for a postgraduate specialisation in plant protection. His younger brother, Árpád, is likewise studying at that faculty — since reorganised and renamed by legal succession as the Faculty of Agricultural Engineering of Szent István University.

With the market and the trade both changing constantly, and committed to modernisation, they try out and take up the newest technology and equipment, improving how efficiently the land is worked with better machinery year after year.

We know the trade from practice ourselves, and we want to put that experience to work — above all for farms of 20 to 100 hectares, though we are of course just as glad to help larger and smaller operations.”
Csák Máté György

Contract work

Why we went into contract work

With the capacity left over from working our own land, we want to help other farmers work theirs more efficiently

    Machinery is what makes it efficient

    In a constantly changing environment, field work only turns a real profit with modern, high-capacity machinery.

  2. 02

    But size is a limit

    These modern precision machines only pay for themselves over a larger area, given what they cost to buy.

  3. 03

    Hence the idea

    We make our fleet and our hands-on experience available as contract work, so that smaller farms are not shut out of modern cultivation.
