According to the Sunchang-gun Agricultural Technology Center, this training was held twice on the 18th and 25th, aiming to realize the county government's goal of profitable farming by reducing farm management costs and to promote sustainable eco-friendly agriculture.

Eco-friendly agricultural materials are substances derived from nature instead of chemically synthesized materials, preserving the natural environment and enabling the production of healthy agricultural products.

On the day, farmers acquired fermentation techniques through practical training using ingredients such as wood vinegar, crab powder, molasses, and microorganisms, and learned how to manufacture and utilize eco-friendly agricultural materials directly at their farms.

Choi Young-il, the county governor, stated, “Reducing the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides is essential for low-carbon and sustainable agriculture,” adding, “We will continue to expand the supply and education of eco-friendly agricultural materials that satisfy farmers.”
