Professional Competency and Agricultural Problem Solver

Miryang City in Gyeongnam Province will operate the Miryang Agriculture 119 Agricultural Field Technology Team starting from the 15th to directly listen to various difficulties occurring in the agricultural field and resolve them promptly.

Miryang ranks first in Gyeongnam Province for the area of facility horticulture and fruit cultivation, and there are many inquiries about crop techniques in addition to major crops such as strawberries, peppers, and apples. Furthermore, inquiries from returnees to farming regarding crop cultivation continue to increase, leading to a growing need for resolving agricultural field difficulties and demands for specialized capabilities every year.

Every year, two professional committee members with experience and expertise in related fields such as facility horticulture and fruit cultivation are publicly recruited to provide management consulting for overall agricultural field complaints and the increasing inquiries from returnees to farming. They also provide focused on-site technical support to address agricultural problems such as reduced crop growth due to abnormal climate and pests and diseases.

Shin Young-sang, Director of the Agricultural Technology Center, stated, “We will strive to provide proactive agricultural guidance to quickly resolve agricultural problems and alleviate the difficulties of farmers even a little.”
