The opening ceremony was attended by Lee Dong-hwan, Mayor of Goyang Special City, Kim Un-nam, Chairman of the Goyang Special City Council, local provincial and city council members, representatives of agricultural organizations, and local farmers, adding prestige to the event.


The Western Branch was established with a total budget of 1.3239 billion KRW and is equipped with an agricultural machinery storage warehouse of 430㎡ on a 1,460㎡ site. It plans to provide rental services of 67 agricultural machines across 33 types, including walking tractors and vinyl covering machines, to farmers.


Until now, farmers in the western areas of Goyang such as Songpo, Deogi, and Gajwa had to use the Wonheung Agricultural Machinery Rental Center, facing difficulties in transportation due to the long distance. With the opening of the Western Branch, the convenience for local farmers has increased, and their economic burden has been alleviated.


In his commemorative speech at the opening ceremony, Mayor Lee Dong-hwan said, "I hope the Western Branch will be a practical help to local farmers by significantly improving the economic burden and safety issues related to the transportation of agricultural machinery."



Going forward, the city plans to actively reflect the opinions of farmers and implement practical support policies to meet the increasing demand from urban farmers and promote the development of local agriculture.
