This training aims to prevent safety accidents that may occur during farming work and to take the lead in realizing "Zero Agricultural Work Safety Accidents."

The training will be divided into theoretical education and on-site practical training.

On the 24th, theoretical education for accident prevention will be held at the large lecture hall of the Yeongju Agricultural Technology Center, and from the 25th to the 26th, on-site practical technical training will be conducted at the southern and northern branches of the agricultural machinery rental center for those who have completed the theoretical education.

In particular, farmers who complete the training will be qualified to rent agricultural excavators and tractors from the Yeongju Agricultural Machinery Rental Center.

Additionally, those who complete the training can receive a 5% discount on agricultural safety insurance premiums and a 3% discount on comprehensive agricultural machinery insurance premiums.
