For high-risk reproductive plants, we will come up with measures to allow imports after lowering the risk of pests in the other country, and we will reevaluate the risk of imported plants by inflow route and item, and we will promote efficient quarantine by strengthening management of items with high risk of pests. In addition, in order to strengthen the safety management of livestock products in the production stage, we will expand the verification of livestock safety management certification standards for farms, slaughterhouses, and milk farms to ensure their internal stability, and further strengthen the management of distribution history for pork in addition to imported beef.In connection with 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

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 possible through scientific epidemiological analysis based on information and communication technology such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and big data. To prevent the recurrence of foot-and-mouth disease, we will maintain the positive rate of non-farm antibodies at more than 70% and strive to achieve the goal of cleanliness of foot-and-mouth disease by establishing a site-oriented regular quarantine system. In addition, we will strengthen the foundation for plant quarantine, such as mandatory detection of pests and rapid control of high-risk foreign diseases such as foreign red fire ants,

The 2019 己亥 Korean Horse Training Association will develop a more scientific and systematic training program and work to improve the skills of horse racing in order to bring out the thrill and the ability of horse racing. By allowing horse racing to ride safely, horse racing will be popularized and serve as a driving force. To that end, we will focus more on the distribution of safe conversion of horseback riding. As a practical task, we plan to conduct several training sessions related to training for the whole country. We will also examine the differences between the group of horses that joined the horse racing park through the training test and the group of horses that did not, and examine whether Korea's horse racing is going in a desirable direction.

In the long run, I hope that Korea will work together to become the hub of the horseback riding industry in Northeast Asia. I ask for the government's active support, public relations, and interest in the 2019 Golden Pig Year. I pray for your blessings and health in the new year. Horse racing has suffered from a continuous decline in customers and a prolonged vacancy in the president of the association.There may be many ways, but I think it is more important than anything else to show the customers and the people in their respective positions in order to improve the marketability of horse racing and horseback riding.

The role and duties of the quarantine headquarters are becoming increasingly heavy due to the global spread of national disaster-type livestock infectious diseases and high-risk plant diseases, the continued emergence of new and mutant animal diseases, the increasing demand for on-site problem-solving research, and the increasing public expectations for agricultural and livestock safety. The Agriculture and Livestock Quarantine Headquarters is a national standard quarantine and quarantine agency, and all employees will become one body this year and play their role as watchmen to defend against livestock diseases and plant pests.To this end, the quarantine headquarters intends to focus on setting up four core tasks with the goal of "One-Health, field-oriented, communication cooperation, future response,

I think it is a desirable idea to build a policy control tower for each local government through the center. The policy control of the production, fostering, and training of horses, which are livestock, is necessary to create an efficient management system in which horse riding facilities and farmers can quickly share information and receive what they need through regional cooperatives that have already established branches. Recognizing that reckless competition among these industries rather hinders growth, we need to induce a campaign of harmony and co-prosperity. In addition, public relations should be carried out to overcome the negative image of horseback riding.

In addition, through active quarantine negotiations with export partners, fresh agricultural products such as pears and tomatoes were exported to South America for the first time, and in April last year, the 12th International Convention on Plant Protection was successfully held in Songdo, Incheon, where 360 national representatives from 120 countries participated.In addition, for the development of the animal medicine industry, various communication channels were set up, including on-site meetings focused on public-private communication, workshops, and regular operation of visiting civil service counseling centers, and the euthanasia rate of abandoned animals was reduced by improving animal protection promotion and animal protection center operation system.

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, but 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 found through preliminary observation at the container yard at Gamman Pier in Busan Port on September 28, we have strengthened quarantine and observation at major ports by mobilizing all available personnel. In addition, we have implemented rapid control work with related ministries to prevent foreign red fire ants from entering and spreading in Korea.

Last year, we would like to express our gratitude to all the staff at the Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs Quarantine Headquarters for silently fulfilling their duties in their respective positions despite difficult conditions such as foot-and-mouth disease, highly pathogenic avian influenza, and the first discovery of an alien red fire ant. The new year is the Year of the Golden Dog. The dog is an animal that symbolizes bravery and wisdom, and is also a partner that has been with humans for a long time. The quarantine headquarters will also approach the people one step closer, become a partner in empathizing and communicating. Despite a number of difficult conditions last year, the quarantine headquarters produced excellent results based on the expertise and know-how accumulated so far.

Present the contents of the standardized instruction plan for use in the pilot school. For the operation of the pilot school, it is necessary to develop a standardized instruction plan that the teacher in charge can teach. In addition, standardized instruction plans are also important as they serve as the basis for teachers to confidently educate students. Currently, each horse riding course where the school horse riding experience is conducted has a different instruction plan, and the more the base of horse riding is expanded in the future, the more likely confusion will occur. In addition, the development of standardized instruction plans can be the basis for being incorporated into the national-level curriculum. In order to incorporate horse riding into school sports, it is necessary to operate a pilot school,

Dirtbread, used as a racehorse, is a horse destined to run fast. In order to transform horses that have been retired from racing into horseback riding, training methods are needed to change horses from sprint horses to safe horses. Train the center of gravity that is tilted forward from the front to the back. Specific training methods can be learned through training, whether it is rough or rough. Of course, the horse used in professional sports in Japan is the European wormblood. A wormblood is a very different quality and quality of a horse from a racehorse used in daily sports. However, wormblood is difficult to popularize because of its limited number and high price. In order to popularize horseback riding, it is important to have a racehorse for the general public to enjoy and revitalize related competitions.

From horse production to fostering, training, and horseback riding in one place, there is no other organization like the Korean Horse Association. From horse production to horse racing, the key is to increase the efficiency of the horse industry and make a profit. Compared to Europe and the United States, Korea and Japan have relatively fewer professional horseback riding, but the number of race horses produced is higher. So it is important how to use race horses. And for the horse racing course management, it is necessary to increase efficiency and make profits. The Japanese horse industry was able to outperform Korea because of the good use of efficient race horses for horseback riding. As a representative example, I think the most important thing in our company was to cultivate and train race horses

Since the enactment of the Industrial Promotion Act at the end of 2011, the horse industry has been growing rapidly due to the efforts of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, but has gone through a transition period in recent years. I believe that this time is not a recession but a leap period. After the leap period, we will soon enter the maturity period, so we believe that what we need most is the training of professional manpower before going into the stabilization period. Industrial training through specialized institutions is essential so that professional manpower with basic education can be directly put into the actual industry. The training manpower produced through this process will be of great help to the horse industry, which is struggling.

In the subsequent second presidential election, Min Byung-doo, a lawmaker of the Democratic Party of Korea, was unanimously elected as the chairman. Min Byung-doo, the second chairman of the Munhwa Ilbo, served as the 17th and 19th members of the National Assembly, and the 20th is an active three-term lawmaker elected in Dongdaemun-gu, Seoul. Min Byung-doo also showed outstanding ability when he was a reporter for the Munhwa Ilbo, but when he entered politics, he carried out the politics of military discipline.

However, I personally think that the Jeju horse industry should not collapse. As far as I know, the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry's budget for the horse industry at the end of next year has not been secured at all in Jeju Island. It is a matter of marking the livestock of horse meat sold in Jeju Island. About 1,100 are slaughtered a year, of which about 60% are dirt bread, 30% are Hallama, and 10% are Jeju horses. It is intended to indicate exactly what kind of horse meat it is. I went to the president of the Gyeongju Horse Association and the president of the Jeju Horse Association to ask for the handling of these matters, but there is no answer at all, saying that they would. If the heads of the three organizations gather and go together, we don't know if they don't know it's an important issue.

However, it would be dangerous to try to improve too many parts at once. Officials from the horse industry have played an important role in the development of the domestic livestock industry. If we continue to think about and discuss the horse industry, I believe there will be a better direction to reduce pain. If a sound horse industry is established again, the crisis will be a flag of reversal. In 2019, the year of the pig will be the first year of the new beginning, and all the people wish for a bright, joyful and happy society. The year of the pig is the Year of the Golden Pig. I look forward to seeing 2019 as a year of abundance for some reason. In particular, I would like to start with the hope that it will be a good opportunity for Korean horse industry workers to break the years of stagnation and go out vigorously.

Through exchanges with many overseas horseback riding people, we intend to provide an opportunity for Hallama to export overseas. All of these are ultimately directions for the development of the domestic horse industry, and it is also the way for the income of Hallama-producing farmers to increase right now. As you know, some aftereffects from the internal disturbance of the association remain. I think it has been overcome to some extent due to the constant efforts of the members of the association. I think that maybe after this year, everything will return to normal from next year. I think it will be an association that only makes progress in the future. The reality is that horse production farmers have to make profits but they are not. For example, if a shed is built, about 60% of it is supported by the province. However, producers of primary industries often do not have money and cannot even receive that support.

Whether it was difficult or difficult, the year ends like this. Looking back at the year, as always, I think it would have been better if I had made a little concession. I think it comes from my greed and obsession that I am right and that I have to change it in the new year, but it is not fixed again. The Jangje Association, a small group of about 90 people in Korea in 2018, is working together to find a new way by integrating what was divided into two groups into one group and to fulfill the developmental role of the domestic horse industry. I want to do my best to manage the horse's hoof, which is the second life for horses, and to play my role as a Jangje priest with the goal of improving qualitative technology to provide the best service.

There may be differences of opinion in holding one competition, and misunderstandings may be missed in the process. The second competition is the result of applying for a contest to select additional targets for horse industry promotion support projects conducted by the Korean Racing Authority in November. It will be held in the same regulations and methods as the first competition. We plan to work harder to promote it for the rest of the year. Next year, as this year, we plan to focus on establishing a lineage and promote it in earnest. Currently, the Jeju Livestock Promotion Agency is preparing a competition for the operator of the horse training base center, and if it attracts it, it is expected that the establishment of the lineage of Hallama will accelerate.

What is noteworthy in this competition is that the international rules of the International Horse Racing Federation are applied. It is not just an endurance competition held in Korea, but also an international certification by applying international regulations and allowing participants to participate in international competitions in the future. In addition, we are preparing opportunities to participate in endurance competitions held in Korea and will work hard to enhance the international competitiveness of Hallama. This year, the focus was on establishing the lineage of Hallama. In order for Hallama to succeed as a horseback riding, it is necessary to establish a brand first, and a clear lineage must be established first. And the endurance competition was held this spring, and the "2017 Hallama Festa National Endurance Competition" is held twice in the first and second rounds.
