Article 13 of the Horse Industry Promotion Act stipulates mentally ill patients and addicts of drugs and psychotropic drugs as reasons for disqualification and cancellation of qualifications for horse trainers, funeral workers and rehabilitation horse riding instructors," Rep. Lee Jong-bae said in a partial revision bill of the Act on Promotion of the Horse Industry. The reason for disqualification is to secure a certain level of qualifications for those who work in occupations or business areas that require high ethics or have a significant impact on the health and safety of the general public. If it falls under the reason for disqualification, it should be excluded from certain occupations or business areas and restrict basic rights such as freedom of career choice and economic activities guaranteed by the Constitution, which should be limited to the minimum necessary restrictions.

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.

Many horse racing organizations, which say the Seoul Horse Racing Association's decision to reject the horse racing innovation plan, point out that the integration of mountainous areas, the upper limit of the introduction of foreign horses, and the opening of the horse racing market can cause serious problems that can kill domestic horse production, but the horse racing society overlooks problems that can be derived in the process only for the purpose of entering Part 2. After the emergency meeting, an official from the Seoul Horse Racing Association said, "The result of the emergency meeting was a question of whether the horse racing society would accept the horse racing innovation adjustment plan. As soon as the emergency committee is newly established, we will try to re-consult with the horse racing society, he said, adding, "We have not yet discussed the refusal to vote for the race."

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.

Seoul racers decided against the emergency committee and the horse racing society's coordination plan, and decided to disband the existing emergency committee and form a new emergency committee to respond to the horse racing innovation plan.The final proposal proposed by the Korean Horse Racing Association was adjusted to carry out the horse racing innovation plan to the extent that not only executives and employees of the Korean Horse Racing Association but also related organizations described it as "rags," and added numerous supplementary measures. Nevertheless, the reason why the Seoul Horse Racing Association rejected the final proposal for horse racing innovation is the failure of the Korean Horse Racing Association to present supplementary measures to dispel the concerns of related organizations about the integration of mountain areas and distrust of the implementation system that is deeply rooted in the domestic horse racing world.

Most of the heads of state who participated in the emergency general meeting pointed out that the pros and cons vote itself was contradictory and criticized that the horse society's approach and attitude were wrong, regardless of whether it was right or wrong. In addition, some argued that the horse society's horse racing innovation plan is repeating what it had previously promised, and that it should receive a memorandum on the implementation of its promise as it is repeating the part that the horse society promised in the past. On the other hand, some said that the goals of all the faces would be the same in terms of developing the horse industry and strengthening the status of the horses, but they demanded that the consultation continue, saying that the goals pursued by the horse society are the same, but that there are only problems in the method.

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,

First of all, the Korea Racing Authority (Chairman Oh Young-bok) and the Korea Inland Horse Producers Association (Chairman Jang Jung-ki) held a press conference at the Jeju Provincial Council's room at 10 a.m. on the 16th, reiterating their opposition to the implementation of the integrated mountain racing and the increase in the introduction of foreign horses, and issued a statement. In a statement, the Gyeongju Horse Producers Association said, "It exposes the fictitious structure of the Korean Horse Association's horse racing innovation plan," and called for the abolition of the integrated racing program, saying that it is a policy that goes against the policy of revitalizing domestic horses that the Korean Horse Association insisted on, and that it is a contradictory policy to become an advanced country in the horse industry through foreign horses.

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

The basic direction is the same, such as the integration of mountainous areas, the introduction of a rating system, and the opening of the horse racing market. An official from the Korea Racing Association said, "The promotion of horse racing innovation is part of innovative management to overcome the crisis in the horse racing industry, and we will provide high-quality products to customers by enhancing the marketability of horse racing, and further establish ourselves as a sport that receives national support. "We want to revive Korean horse racing by pioneering the global market by strengthening the international competitiveness of horse racing," he said. "I fully understand the concerns of related organizations, but the Korean Horse Association has also been agonizing over a lot, and we have come up with a plan to support related organizations in connection with horse racing innovation."

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.

Farmland conservation charges must be paid up to 30% of the individual land price of the farmland, but there are situations in which the form cannot be changed for various reasons. The government has established standards for horse-riding facilities in farming and fishing villages that do not cost much and has decided on a reporting system rather than a permit system, but has to convert actual farmland into sports facility land. The reality is that farmers are unable to participate in the horse industry under related laws that are different from the purpose of the Horse Industry Promotion Act. Such complex procedures and conflicts with related laws have resulted in a decrease in the total number of horse-riding sites registered. The number of unauthorized horse-riding sites is overwhelmingly large. The horse-riding industry can develop only when the horse-riding sites are nurtured through institutional improvement as soon as possible.

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.

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,

Rural promotion officials will approach farmers and the public with such dog friendliness, listen to the voices of the field and practice them. We will continue to innovate the way we work to establish an organizational culture that values the field and customers. We will strengthen communication with the field by thinking from the perspective of farmers and the public and reflecting the voices of consumers from the planning stage of the project. This year, the Winter Olympics, a global festival, will be held in Pyeongchang, Korea. In preparation for the Olympics, we will actively support it to be recorded as the most successful Olympics in which farmers and the people participate together by more thoroughly preventing livestock diseases such as AI

In particular, in preparation for the full implementation of the pesticide permitted substance list management system, we will expand the registration of pesticides ex officio and actively promote pesticide safety use education to produce safe crops and prevent damage to farmers. To this end, we will develop precision growth management software by combining smart farm technology standardization, big data, and artificial intelligence with agriculture, and foster more than 100 smart agricultural experts every year to create a smart agricultural ecosystem.In order to actively foster the seed industry and agricultural biotechnology to enhance the competitiveness of the bio industry and to address concerns about GMOs,

We will expand the base for proper rice production and production of field crops through the development of technology for mechanizing field crops using rice paddies, and promote rice consumption by promoting processing industries such as the development of varieties and processed foods exclusively for rice flour. We will develop varieties and cultivation technologies that can adapt to climate change such as drought and heat waves at all times, introduce tropical and subtropical crops to foster them as new income crops, and strive to develop rapid control technologies against diseases and pests. We will protect the people's healthy table by establishing a safe food production and supply system such as eco-friendly ecological agriculture and safety management of agricultural materials.

The Board of Audit and Inspection even disciplined government officials in charge of various local governments, including Anseong City, Icheon City and Yeoncheon County in Gyeonggi Province, for violating the local government law. They told livestock farmers to abide by the law that only the central government knew without knowing the officials in charge. When establishing a riding facility, the facility should be installed in accordance with the standard of the law and other relevant laws and regulations. Unlike other sports facilities, horse-riding facilities should pay attention to livestock and land-related laws, and should undergo preliminary environmental review by use and area in accordance with the National Land Act, the Special Measures Act on Development Restricted Zones, and the Groundwater Act. Depending on the situation, permission for exclusive use of farmland, building permits, and reporting of construction of structures should also be made.
