The Agrarian Party of Greece (Greek: Αγροτικό Κόμμα Ελλάδος) was a Greek left-wing political party from 1923 to 1946.
History
[edit]The party was established in March 1923 at the second Panhellenic Agrarian Congress.[1] In the December 1923 elections it won three seats.[2] In the 1926 elections it won four seats.
The party did not contest the 1928 elections,[3] but returned in 1936, winning a single seat in the elections that year. The party did not contest any further elections.
