This exchange, which is being held for the second time following last year, was organized to establish a cooperative network with Aeres in the Netherlands and to benchmark advanced agricultural technologies and educational know-how.

In particular, the training program is designed to involve both teachers and students, providing opportunities to enhance teachers' professional expertise and expand students' global competencies for nurturing future talents in agriculture.

Participants are taking part in lectures and practical training on horticultural precision agriculture and smart agriculture at Aeres Dronten University, and are visiting local farms and related institutions to experience the Dutch agricultural management field firsthand.

Kim Minseung, a student at the International Advanced Agricultural School who is participating in the training, expressed anticipation for the visit, saying, "It will be an opportunity to understand the advanced technologies of a leading agricultural country, which will greatly help in the development of Korea's agricultural industry and in pioneering agribusiness ventures."

The provincial office plans to further strengthen its support in the future to lead advanced agriculture, foster a sustainable agricultural ecosystem, and nurture global talents.
