Damyang-gun Takes Steps to Strengthen Self-Reliance and Enhance Competitiveness of Agricultural Management Entities

Gun Agricultural Technology Center, 2021 Small-Scale Farmer Support Project 'Positive Response'

[Damyang=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] Although the scale of management is small, the 강소농 (Small but Strong Farmers) management improvement practice education aimed at nurturing competitive farmers is receiving positive responses from participants.

According to the county on the 20th, the 강소농 support project is a program that strengthens autonomous and self-reliant capabilities through practical education for improving farm management, support for autonomous group activities, and customized consulting, fostering small agricultural management entities with great future growth potential.

They recruited 20 new and existing 강소농 who wish to receive refresher education among early-stage returnees to farming and those who have completed previous 강소농 education, and the first training began on the 15th of last month.

On the 19th, education on creating farm brands and sales promotion strategies was conducted, and after completing the basic course, plans include training on business planning and writing business plans.

Currently, due to the spread of COVID-19 in the area, real-time online education is being conducted using non-face-to-face platforms, and once the infection trend stabilizes, it will switch back to face-to-face education.

A county official said, “We hope that through the 강소농 education, the capabilities of our county’s 강소농 will be further developed and gain the strength to continue growing,” adding, “We will actively promote support projects for marketing and branding in the future to enhance the competitiveness of Damyang agriculture.”
