[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] Ulsan Agricultural Technology Center (Director Hwang Myung-hee) is recruiting students for the '2021 Returning to Farming and Rural School'.

The 'Returning to Farming and Rural School' is an educational program that provides prospective returnees to farming and rural areas with systematic basic farming technology education and agricultural information to help them successfully settle in agriculture and rural communities.

The education course consists of four courses: beekeeping, specialty crops, vegetables, and fruit trees, targeting a total of 200 people (50 per course). It will include introductions to support policies for returning to farming and rural areas and basic farming technology education for each crop.

The education schedule will proceed in the order of beekeeping in March, specialty crops and vegetables in April, and fruit trees in May, with five sessions conducted for each course.

The education will be conducted face-to-face and in groups while observing safety rules. However, it may be changed to non-face-to-face education depending on the COVID-19 situation.

Applications are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis starting February 17, and can be submitted through the Ulsan Metropolitan City Agricultural Technology Center website or by visiting in person.

An official from the Agricultural Technology Center said, "We hope that citizens interested in agriculture will use this education as an opportunity to enhance their crop cultivation skills and prepare systematically for returning to farming and rural areas."
