Template:Politicsboxend The Democratic Farmers' Party of Germany (German: Demokratische Bauernpartei Deutschlands (DBD)) was an East German political party. The DBD was founded in 1948. It had 52 representatives in the Volkskammer, as part of the National Front. The DBD participated in all GDR cabinets (with exception of the last GDR cabinet). According to Deutsche Bauernpartei from chronik der wende the founding of the DBD was an attempt by the SED to weaken the influence of CDU/LDPD in the rural community by establishing a party loyal to the SED. The leadership cadre came mainly from the ranks of the SED.

In 1990 the DBD merged with the Christian Democratic Union.
