On-site farming will be internalized in all the work of all employees of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs so that farmers can feel the changes in farming. We will systematize the process of evaluating the results of the processing of on-site proposals and the degree of policy reflection, and discover and share best practices. In order for on-site farming to succeed, the voices of the field need to be more organized. We will provide support, including related legislation, to ensure the participation and communication of farmers and to revitalize the agricultural chambers with self-help capabilities. All officials of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food

On July 27, Cho Hee-yeon, superintendent of the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education, visited a rally on the opposite side of the Yongsan OTC and insisted that the Yongsan OTC should be brought back to square one. Superintendent Cho, who visited Sungsim Girls' Middle and High School around 11 p.m. and moved to the Yongsan OTC on foot with students, insisted to the opposing rally, "The Yongsan OTC should be reviewed from a public interest perspective and a community perspective," and added, "The closure of the Yongsan OTC may cause employment problems and financial losses, but if the Seoul Metropolitan Council and the National Assembly put their heads together and hold serious discussions, we will be able to reach an agreement." Superintendent Cho also said, "I hope the society will start discussing to turn it to the origin," and added, "The regulation of Yongsan OTC is a legitimate regulation and a good regulation."

While expanding the KRW 100 taxi to all 82 郡 areas, we will create a transportation model suitable for regional characteristics by diversifying transportation such as taxis and buses and business operation methods. We will introduce a care farm that helps vulnerable groups, such as the disabled, adapt to society through agricultural activities and provides vocational training opportunities so that social agriculture can be activated. We will change the budget and system based on the performance evaluation so that the Moon Jae-in administration's agricultural government goals and national tasks can be faithfully implemented.

As the Yongsan Police Station launched an investigation into 17 opposition committee officials accused of obstructing the operation of the Yongsan OTC, which began its pilot opening at the end of June, opposition parties are expected to reduce political intervention in Yongsan OTC as opposition parties such as the New Politics Alliance for Democracy, which were criticized for intervening in the controversy over the Yongsan OTC, suffered a crushing defeat in the July 30 by-elections, which is expected to lead to a reduction in political intervention in the issue related to the Yongsan OTC. Yongsan Police Station conducted an investigation into 17 opposition committee members accused of obstruction of business and violation of the assembly and demonstration law on July 28 and 31.

Starting with eight local governments, we will also support the establishment of regional food plans so that a regional circular production-consumption system can be established. Consumers such as agriculture, local food stores, and school meals will be closely linked to contribute to enhancing consumer confidence and revitalizing the local economy. For the successful hosting of the Pyeongchang Olympics, we will make all-out efforts to block the spread of AI, while also pushing for preventive quarantine measures such as a duck breeding restriction system and inspection of vulnerable quarantine management targets. To prevent foot-and-mouth disease,

Crop accident insurance provides new farmers' safety insurance products that ease the rate gap between cities and counties by setting an upper limit on premium rates, and provide enhanced coverage to the level of industrial accident insurance. Through water system connection projects and drainage improvements, we will reduce frequent drought and inundation damage, and we will also implement seismic reinforcement for old repair facilities in preparation for earthquakes. The ongoing negotiations for amendments to the Korea-US FTA will actively respond to the government's position that additional opening to the agricultural sector is impossible.

Like the Central Council on Main Countries, we will strengthen the governance system between the government and the producers' organizations for each item to adjust the supply and demand from the pre-production stage, such as adjusting the cultivation area. We will prepare a manual for controlling supply and demand throughout the entire production process from sowing to shipping, and increase the reliability of agricultural observation by utilizing advanced devices such as big data and drones. We will prepare a complete reorganization of the direct payment system in the direction of increasing the unit price of field agriculture, conditional disadvantage, and eco-friendly direct payments, and enhancing the public function of agriculture and rural communities.

Now, it is an important time for our agriculture to move forward by overcoming this reality and establishing the foundation of agricultural policy. The agricultural policy of the Moon Jae In government is people-centered agricultural policy that values the income and quality of life of farmers and the health and safety of the people. It is an innovative agricultural policy that pursues job creation and growth through creative destruction of existing practices. It is a sustainable agricultural policy that strengthens the sustainability of the agri-food industry and the environment, and the public interest values of agriculture and rural areas. It is a field-oriented reform agricultural policy that listens to the voices of the field from the perspective of farmers and the people.

As a fan who enjoys horseback riding, I am glad to see the opening of the over-the-counter sales office in Yongsan close to my home," said Kim, head of the public relations department at the nursing hospital. "I understand the stance of those who oppose horse racing because people have a bad perception of it. However, I don't think it is the logic of the free-for-all. We should take a step back from the standpoint to understand and sincerely engage in dialogue, along with recognizing more serious and realistic issues about the over-the-counter sales office in Yongsan. Also, although it is a vacation, we hope students will not be mobilized to the assembly hall. The behavior of activists and teachers at Sungsim Girls' Middle and High School trying to publicize their claims by taking students hostage is so unsightly.

However, the opposition committee is strongly opposed to the test operation, saying that it will not hold any dialogue before closing the over-the-counter sales office in Yongsan, saying that the pilot operation is merely a "trick" to change the situation and that the KMA is seriously violating educational conditions and residential environment with its formal legitimacy logic. The Let's Run cc dissolution issue has emerged as a national issue because civic groups leading the opposition party are constantly trying to make issues, and opposition politicians are not willing to respond to their voices and solve the essence of the problem, but rather put their interests first. Concerns are rising over the issue as the left-right confrontation between progressives and conservatives unfolds over the Let's Run cc dissolution issue.

The upper limit of the congratulatory money will be lowered to 50,000 won, but it will be allowed up to 100,000 won when including wreaths.The income gap between urban and rural areas is still large, and agricultural income remains stagnant at the level of 10 million won. It is difficult to find young people in rural areas, with only 1.1% of owners under the age of 40. Farmers' concerns remain over natural disasters and insecurity in supply and demand. The people are demanding fundamental improvements in agricultural safety, livestock diseases and the livestock environment. As the FTA's tariff reduction effect has been in full swing, competition with imported agricultural and livestock products in the domestic market is also intensifying.

The horse racing society, which is struggling to preserve horse racing sales due to various unfavorable factors this year, is insisting on the justification of Chuseok horse racing, and the management union knows the necessity of implementing additional horse racing, but is playing a difficult tug-of-war as it demands an increased labor base. It is true that managers who have become commonplace to go to work at dawn have poor working conditions due to the long-term implementation of Noeul horse racing and preservation racing. On the other hand, it is also true that everyone knows that Chuseok horse racing will be implemented by announcing the implementation plan in advance at the beginning of the year.

By fundamentally reviewing the problems raised at the time of pesticide detection eggs, the relevant ministries jointly prepared the Comprehensive Food Safety Improvement Measures. When setting standards and items for livestock inspection applied at the site, prior consultation between relevant ministries is mandatory, and when hazardous substances are detected, joint inspections are conducted by relevant ministries. At the end of last year, we were able to inform you of the revision of the Enforcement Decree of the Solicitation Prohibition Act. The upper limit of gift costs for agricultural and fishery products and processed agricultural products has been raised from 50,000 won to 100,000 won.

The issue of refunding preferential rice payments made in 2016 was resolved smoothly by continuous dialogue with farmers' organizations. The issue of over-the-counter sales offices in Yongsan and Daejeon, which had been in sharp conflict with the local community for a long time, was also decided to be relocated through social compromise. There was also a crisis. Emergency quarantine measures were taken to resolve the situation early when red fire ants were discovered. When an insecticide egg incident occurred, all farms were banned from being shipped immediately after detection, and all unsuitable eggs were discarded by conducting a full inspection. Along with this, we promoted system improvement to prevent recurrence.

First of all, we considered stabilizing rice prices as the first step in restoring trust in the agricultural government, and through close communication with farmers' organizations and relevant ministries, we decided on measures to isolate 720,000 tons of rice from the market, the largest volume in history. Thanks to this, rice prices, which remained at the level 20 years ago, exceeded 150,000 won right after the announcement of the measures, and are continuously on the rise so far. The purchase price of public reserve rice and market quarantine grains from 2017 has also increased by 19% year-on-year, and the purchase price of 52,570 won per 40 kg bag of rice has been completed by the end of last year.

We will secure animal vaccine sovereignty early by advancing pest control vaccine manufacturing technology and establishing an AI antigen bank. In addition, we will contribute to the increase of farm household income by developing vaccines to reduce consumable diseases such as swine flu, which is a major cause of productivity decline in livestock farms, block the inflow by thoroughly monitoring new and mutated diseases that can be introduced from abroad, and actively support the development of stem cell treatments, one of the new growth engines. We will become a national standard outpatient pest research institution by securing expertise in the field of plant quarantine,

Regarding the pesticide egg scandal, which has become a social issue, we will strengthen the management and supervision authority of the Korea Food Safety and Management Certification Institute and emergency inspections of HACCP-certified farms by revising related laws to improve the overall business process so that safe livestock products can be distributed by canceling certification when harmful substances such as pesticides are detected. We will push for early exports of items that have been suspended due to the outbreak of diseases in Korea, support stable and continuous quarantine of items such as samgyetang, and improve the system for systematic management

In addition, we will strengthen the foundation of plant quarantine by making it mandatory to report the detection of pests and to quickly detect and control high-risk foreign pests such as foreign red fire ants, expanding the number of inspection personnel, establishing a nationwide forecast network, and establishing a forecast control center. In addition, we will advance the management of plant pests by quickly detecting pests that are concerned about exporting countries such as fruit burn disease by utilizing advanced unmanned aerial vehicles and unmanned forecasting trap technology, and conducting scientific epidemiological investigations through genetic analysis.

To this end, the quarantine headquarters will focus on setting up four core tasks with the goal of 'One-Health, field-oriented, communication cooperation, future response, consumer-oriented, and science base' and 'FIRST; field, innovation, responsibility, service, and trust' first. We will make all-out efforts to prevent the spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza, which is currently occurring intermittently in duck farms, from spreading and to end it early. We will make preemptive and effective quarantine management through scientific epidemiological analysis based on information and communication technology such as the Internet of Things and big data.

Since the first outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza in Gochang, North Jeolla Province, on November 17, additional outbreaks have caused concern to livestock farmers and the people in Yeongam, South Jeolla Province, and Jeongeup, North Jeolla Province. However, with a sense of mission to eradicate it as soon as possible, we have focused on preventing the further spread of the disease and ending it early through precise diagnosis and epidemiological investigations. And as foreign red fire ants were discovered through preliminary observation at the container yard at Gamman Pier in Busan Port on September 28, we mobilized all available personnel to strengthen quarantine and forecasting of major ports.

Despite a number of difficult conditions last year, the quarantine headquarters produced excellent results based on the expertise and know-how accumulated so far. As a case in point, the company achieved the feat of advancing the development of the original technology for foot-and-mouth disease vaccine by one year earlier than originally planned, laying the foundation for the "redemption vaccine sovereignty." In addition, it contributed to the early end of foot-and-mouth disease by developing the world's first simple antigen diagnosis kit for three types of foot-and-mouth disease and applying it to the site.

The emergency committee is reportedly discussing countermeasures against the Seoul Metropolitan Council's move.Meanwhile, as the Seoul Metropolitan Council passed a resolution calling for the suspension of business and the relocation of the Yongsan over-the-counter sales office, there are growing concerns about a full-fledged clash between the horse society and the Seoul Metropolitan Government over the Yongsan over-the-counter sales office. There are also complaints about the political behavior that has highlighted the Yongsan over-the-counter issue as a political issue in the wake of a series of elections. While the opposition committee, which has been consistent with opposition only for opposition, continues to rally in front of the Yongsan over-the-counter sales office, Cho Hee-yeon, superintendent of the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education, is disappointing by visiting the site and repeating the opposition's claims.

After developing the world's first mini-antibody protein that inhibits the proliferation of low-pathogenic avian influenza last year, we will do our best to prevent livestock diseases by improving the breeding environment and strengthening the safety management system this year. In order to expand exports of new agricultural products, we will support difficult technologies in the field, such as leading maintenance technologies after harvest, and strive to transfer customized agricultural technologies to developing countries as well as strategic cooperation with advanced agricultural countries.We will create new added value by linking local resources and agricultural products with secondary and tertiary industries such as processing,

He also added, "The National Assembly should put safety measures in place to revise the School Health Act to measure students' commuting distance at a visible distance rather than a simple straight distance from harmful facilities." Meanwhile, the Seoul Metropolitan Council also passed a resolution calling for the enactment of a special law on the Ferry Sewol to find out the truth of the Ferry Sewol disaster, a resolution to form a special committee on parliamentary reform of the Seoul Metropolitan Council to restore the image and trust of the city council, which has fallen due to a series of scandals by current and former lawmakers, and a proposal to urge local firefighters to switch to national positions. The Seoul Metropolitan Council's passage of a resolution on the over-the-counter sale of Yongsan is not expected to have any legal effect and will not have much impact on the current situation.
