[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Gwiyeol] Gyeongbuk Province will participate in the '2022 1st Daegu·Gyeongbuk Return-to-Farming and Rural Migration Expo' held for three days from the 16th at Daegu EXCO.

The 'Return-to-Farming and Rural Migration Expo' is the first expo held in Daegu·Gyeongbuk, whereas until now it has mainly targeted urban residents in the Seoul metropolitan area and has been held in Seoul and other metropolitan regions.

This time, it is the first return-to-farming and rural migration expo held in Daegu, where many urban residents originally from Gyeongbuk live, making its significance special.

The expo features booths operated mainly by Gyeongbuk Province, and each city and county will run one-on-one consultation zones and promotional halls for return-to-farming and rural migration.

These promotional halls are composed of various side events such as local government specialty product exhibitions, promotions of agricultural food and agricultural machinery companies, special sales halls for young and start-up farmers, and lectures on excellent cases.

At this expo, the province plans to actively promote the unique appeal of Gyeongbuk as the optimal place for return-to-farming by providing the latest agricultural trends to young and middle-aged people hoping to return to farming, introducing support policies for return-to-farming and youth start-up farming, demand-oriented education, and various high-income crops, reaffirming its status as the best place for return-to-farming.

Kim Jongsu, Director of the Agriculture, Livestock and Distribution Bureau of Gyeongbuk Province, said, “Gyeongbuk has many leading farms that can assist with various high-income crops and farming techniques, and it is receiving great responses from urban residents hoping to return to farming through step-by-step policies and demand-oriented customized education. Since this is the first expo held in Daegu, we will actively promote the charm of Gyeongbuk so that the baby boomer generation from the region can return.”
