Enhancing Media Utilization Skills of Local Youth Farmers

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yuk Miseok] Gurye-gun announced on the 25th that it will promote education to nurture young farmer creators in the region in line with the era of overflowing media and content, often called a media flood.

The county is recruiting trainees for the Gurye Young Farmer Creator Training from the 8th of this month until tomorrow, targeting young farmers aged 18 to 49 residing in the area who are proficient in using smartphones.

The training content includes practical courses on planning, filming, and editing videos that highlight the unique characteristics of each young farmer with farming as the theme and rural background, as well as a live commerce course for online direct sales recently popular due to COVID-19.

The training will be conducted for about three months starting from the 17th of next month at the Agricultural Technology Center, providing theoretical and practical education using smartphones. The schedule may change to non-face-to-face education depending on the COVID-19 situation.

Applications can be submitted by visiting the Gurye-gun Agricultural Technology Center website, filling out the application form, and submitting it in person to the Human Resources Development Team at the Agricultural Technology Center or via email. For more details, inquiries can be made to the Human Resources Development Team at the Agricultural Technology Center.

Kim Sun-ho, the governor of Gurye-gun, stated, “It is more important than anything else to utilize various new media promotional methods online to deliver Gurye-gun’s excellent agricultural products to consumers,” adding, “We hope this training will bring vitality to rural areas through another challenge by young farmers.”

Meanwhile, a creator refers to a person who broadcasts solo on video sharing sites such as YouTube, and the county is striving to nurture “Nongtubers,” a combination of farmers and YouTubers, in line with the untact era.
