Clarification request(s) and response
Trudy Peters (asker): 4:55pm Aug 6, 2004: Actually, I was more interested in the translation of "Merkblatt," than the ÖKL. Instruction leaflet doesn't exactly turn me on.

Austrian Council for Agricultural Engineering and Rural Development
Explanation:
that is how they call themselves on their webpage:
http://www.oekl.at/english.htm

So I would introduce the German acronym with the English term in brackets, probably you can also use it later in the text...
