Lee Byung-chang, Director of the Agricultural Technology Center, said, “Until now, the Mujeong-myeon Daesup Union Project Group has exported cherry tomatoes to Japan year-round, but through continuous consulting in the future, we will strive to contribute more to local farm income by pioneering various export countries through the production of standard products tailored to the preferences of diverse export countries.”
