September 26, 2023Premier Kim Tok Hun, who is also member of the Presidium of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea and vice-president of the State Affairs Commission of the DPRK, inspected the agricultural sector in South Hwanghae Province.
Going round various farms in Unnyul, Songhwa, Samchon and Jaeryong counties where the immediate harvesting and the sowing of winter wheat and barley seeds are in full swing, the Premier said that South Hwanghae Province, the biggest agricultural province of the country, should play a proper role in the struggle for attaining the goal of grain production set forth by the Party.

He called for ensuring the full operation of farm machines provided under the loving care of the Party and for sending technicians and skilled workers of the farm machine production units to the rural areas to actively help the maintenance and repair of various kinds of farm machines so as to decisively raise the proportion of farm work done by machines.

Learning about the sowing of winter wheat and barley in counties, he said that they should select seeds properly to suit the geographical characteristics and produce a large amount of effective organic fertilizers as they prepare for next year's farming in a far-sighted way. He also called for pushing forward with the improvement of the irrigation system as an important link in increasing agricultural production.
