Training Session to Enhance Strawberry Seedling Management
The Goryeong-gun Agricultural Technology Center in North Gyeongsang Province organized a ‘Strawberry Seedling Latest Technology Training’ session on June 11. Aimed at local strawberry growers, the session focused on improving seedling management practices amidst abnormal weather challenges. The goal is to enhance the quality of strawberry production.
During the training, Jeon Yeonju, an agricultural extension officer, shared practical advice relevant to the field. She discussed the operation of strawberry seedling facilities in Goryeong-gun, assessed this year’s weather patterns, identified key challenges during the seedling stage, and outlined effective response strategies. This initiative follows a previous workshop that focused on the use of beneficial microorganisms, highlighting the center’s commitment to farmer education.
Expertise in seedling management is crucial, as the quality of strawberries is largely determined before harvest. This systematic approach to training is expected to empower small-scale farms and boost their competitiveness in the market.
Looking ahead, the Goryeong-gun Agricultural Technology Center is set to conduct a special lecture on potato cultivation in July, continuing its efforts to support farmers in improving their agricultural practices and increasing their income.
