These farms actively participated in the small but strong farmers training promoted by the Hwasun-gun Agricultural Technology Center, practiced management improvement, and showcased excellent agricultural products and processed goods they directly produced to urban consumers.

They are expected to have a meaningful time participating in the evaluation of the small but strong farmers development performance, product promotion, buyer consultations, and product promotion profile shooting.
