Naju-si Conducts 'Agricultural Education Ontact' to Block COVID-19

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yukbong] Naju City, Jeollanam-do (Mayor Kang In-gyu) announced on the 21st that it will conduct all education related to farmers and consumers 'Ontact' to block COVID-19 community transmission.

Ontact is a concept that adds 'connecting with the outside through online' (On) to Untact, which means non-face-to-face, and is gaining attention as a non-face-to-face online (video) communication method in preparation for the post-COVID-19 era.

According to the Rural Development Division, currently ▲ Farmer Research Association Informatization ▲ Rice Utilization Group Meal Service ▲ Basic Farming Technology Distribution for Return-to-Farming and Return-to-Village Residents ▲ Organic Farming Technician Class Education, etc., are being operated as non-face-to-face video education.

Video education implements vivid videos comparable to face-to-face, including theory, cooking demonstrations, on-site technical guidance, and interactive Q&A, and complements the limitations of group education such as personnel restrictions due to limited space, receiving great responses from many students.

Nasangin, Director of the Agricultural Technology Center, said, "Non-face-to-face video education is a customized education system for COVID-19 prevention and is highly welcomed by students," adding, "We will continue to strive to develop various educational programs for the establishment of advanced agriculture."
