[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Gwiyeol] The Gyeongbuk Yeongyang-gun Agricultural Technology Center conducted a promotion and direct sales event for Yeongyang-gun agricultural and specialty products at the Agricultural Technology Expo held from the 20th to the 22nd at the Namyangju Agricultural Technology Center Jeonjeong.

Two employees from the Agricultural Technology Center and five executives from the Rural Leaders participated in this event, and with the active support of Namyangju City Rural Leaders members, they sold red pepper powder, dried red peppers, and apples, achieving sales of approximately 6 million KRW.

Oh Do-chang, the mayor of Yeongyang-gun, stated, “We will continue to promote agricultural product sales and promotional events so that local farmers can secure stable sales channels and make practical contributions to increasing farm income.”
