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 related ministries, we decided on measures to isolate 720,000 tons of rice from the market, the largest volume ever, from the harvest season. Thanks to this, rice prices, which remained at the level of 20 years ago, have exceeded 150,000 won right after the announcement of the measures, and are continuously on the rise so far. The purchase price of public stockpiled rice and market quarantine grains from 2017 has increased by 19% year-on-year, and we have completed the payment of 52,570 won per 40 kg bag of rice by the end of last year.

Of course, I participated in the production of the Thoroughbred racehorse, which I decided after consideration, but in fact, it was a decision made when things were economically difficult, so honestly, the mental burden was not easy. So, I tried to lay the foundation of the ranch with my own determination, but when I started the construction, the burden of investment was burdensome, but the sigh that the difficulty exceeded the original expectation became deeper and deeper. Looking back, there were several crises. In the desolate mountains, it was not simple to build the foundation for a racehorse production ranch on a site that was even barren, and to strengthen it was not simple, and as the investment and efforts that had to be continued were paid off, the realization of the structural characteristics of the racehorse industry, which took a period beyond the general imagination to create room for reinvestment, was added, and there was a time when I was obsessed with frustration.

In order to prevent the recurrence of foot-and-mouth disease, we will maintain the positive rate of lean antibodies at more than 70% and strive to achieve the goal of cleanliness of foot-and-mouth disease by establishing a field-oriented regular quarantine system. In addition, we will strengthen the foundation for plant quarantine by making it mandatory to report the discovery of pests and to quickly detect and control high-risk foreign pests such as foreign red fire ants, expanding the inspection manpower, establishing a nationwide forecasting network, and establishing a forecasting 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 and burn disease by utilizing unmanned aerial vehicles

As a national standard quarantine and quarantine agency, the Agriculture, Livestock and Quarantine Headquarters will play a role as a watchman to defend against livestock diseases and plant pests at the forefront this year. To this end, the quarantine headquarters aims to set up four core tasks and focus on the core values of "One-Health, Field-oriented, Communication Cooperation, Future Response, Consumer-oriented, and Science Base" and "FIRST; Field, Innovation, Responsibility, Service, and Trust." We will make all-out efforts to prevent the spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza, which is currently occurring intermittently mainly in duck farms, from spreading and to end it early.

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

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.

This year, the Winter Olympics, a festival of people from all over the world, 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 and strengthening on-site technical support to improve the livestock environment such as the smell of livestock.You will all remember that the birth of a world-renowned star named Kim Yu-na in winter sports, an unpopular field, made the whole nation happy. If there was Kim Yu-na in the Winter Olympics, we have you in our agriculture and rural areas. Your sweat and tears shed from the invisible for the development of agriculture and rural areas make our customers,

We will support the improvement of the quality of life of farmers by strengthening safety and welfare such as disaster prevention for farmers. 2018 is the year of the 'Golden Dog Year'. Dogs are considered another family as they are the most friendly pets to people. 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.

It was around the mid-1990s when Lee, who had a long-standing reputation for his attachment to the natural monument Jeju Horse and his passion for the horse industry, participated in the production of the Thoroughbred species. Lee is the one who was widely known for his efforts to build a foundation for grasslands and constantly expanding it through the lease of nearby sites. When he started the selection of the location of the Yongmun Ranch and the construction of the foundation, Lee recalled, "It was established and implemented while the effectiveness and success of the racehorse localization plan were confirmed through test production, but it was a new challenge for all participating farmers because they had almost no experience in breeding, producing, and fostering Thoroughbreds, and it was an adventure."

The Mal Industry Journal compiled the story of CEO Lee and the brothers Gwanglim and Gwanghyeop, who are expected to be successors to carry the future of Yongmun Ranch and Challenger Farm, through on-site talks and phone interviews. At San 71 Bonggae-dong, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province, which is equivalent to the mountainous area of Mount Halla, paddocks, a space for grazing Thoroughbred stallions and Yook Sung-ma, are reminiscent of the field of a golf course.Lee Yong-dae, CEO of Yongmun Ranch, has been building a solid foundation since the mid-1990s and has expanded the area every year. If you look at the view from the point where Samu-dong and Jongbin Masa, which are the heart of Yongmun Ranch, are located, you will come into the view as a landscape that is not much different from the golf course field in a nearby area, and you will have a strong impression of being ample and relaxed.

The act of forcing the implementation of Chuseok and public holidays with management evaluation and performance pay without offering essential alternatives should be stopped immediately," he said. "What the chairman and management should strive for is not to create an atmosphere for the implementation of Chuseok and public holidays by coercion, but to clearly recognize the reality facing the Korean horse racing society and the horse racing industry and to take structural measures to fundamentally change it." As a countermeasure, he also said, "We are trying to improve the horse racing tax system to raise the customer refund rate, to expand leisure tax collection grants so that incentives can go to basic local governments where the over-the-counter branch is located, and to find ways to use the livestock development fund and special reserves to improve the image of the Korean horse racing society."

After developing the world's first mini-antibody (3D8) protein that inhibits the proliferation of low-pathogenic avian influenza last year, we will continue to do our best to prevent livestock diseases this year by improving the breeding environment and strengthening the safety management system. In order to expand exports of fresh agricultural products, we will support difficult technologies in the field, such as leading maintenance technologies after harvesting, 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,

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 further strengthen safety management and expand communication with the public along with the establishment of a foundation for safety evaluation. While developing high value-added functional materials such as food and medicine using agricultural products such as insects,

While developing varieties and cultivation technologies that can adapt to climate change such as drought and heat waves, we will introduce tropical and subtropical crops to foster them as new income crops, and we will also strive to develop rapid control technologies against diseases and pests. We will protect the healthy diet of the people by establishing a safe food production and supply system such as eco-friendly ecological agriculture and safety management of agricultural materials. 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.

This year, our agricultural and rural communities are also facing major changes and challenges such as expansion of market opening, climate change, and aging population, including FTAs. The huge wave of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which brings about innovative changes in the national system, society, and life as a whole, is also coming in. However, these changes and challenges can be new opportunities depending on how we accept and utilize them. As with the idiom "Wealthy people" meaning to ride the wind and overcome the waves, we must not shrink and prepare for the future even more boldly. In the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the Rural Development Administration will seek answers on the spot at the level

The reason why we have been able to stay lost despite the strong waves and storms that threaten our horse racing has been because of the sublime history of 25 years of individual horse racing that all the horse racing families have pioneered together, and the faith and passion of all of us as we run toward the grand goal of advancing horse racing. In particular, the unwavering support and support of the horse racing fans, who have protected Korean horses so that they do not lose the essence and identity of horse racing, have been a great courage and encouragement for our horse racing fans to overcome despair and frustration and get back on their feet. I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to the horse racing fans.

Despite the unpredictable darkness and chaos, all of our racers have not stopped their great journey to challenge and challenge without giving in to despair and crisis over the past year.Entering Part II, the Korean Horse Racing Association, which started anew as a member of the global horse racing industry, began small changes in the field to strengthen its competitiveness, including the away challenge at the Dubai World Cup last year, the introduction of advanced overseas personnel, changes in race horse training patterns and the implementation of the break time system, and the improvement of horse racing infrastructure such as racers' long-cherished dream, such as racetracks and horse racing, also had a time of growth that began in earnest.

test008

Although the goal of integrated racing and entering Part II of Korean racing has been achieved, there is still insufficient support for the improvement of racehorses and the stable establishment of the production base, so I am concerned that the racehorses production industry, which is the basis of horse racing, will become an unstable house of thought.Looking at the unprecedented situation, such as the postponement of the CSAT due to last year's Pohang earthquake, the horse industry has not a solid production base and can collapse in an instant, so we look back on Korea's horse industry policy once again and hope that the completion of Part II and the era of natural Part I will come with the production of domestic horses that surpasses foreign horses thanks to the establishment of policies and investment that can develop co-prosperity.

test008

Last year is remembered as a year that was truly eventful and difficult until the earthquake and fire disaster at the end of the year, in addition to the nation's anxiety caused by the national manipulation of state affairs, the impeachment of the president, and the nuclear provocation of North Korea. As the horse racing industry experienced a series of deaths of horse racing officials, voices for improved working conditions, and the rare occurrence of special labor supervision, I hope that the horse racing industry, including the horse racing business, is generally cold and exhausted. I hope that 2018 will be a year that has turned around with a new start like the sun of hope, as if we are exiting a dark tunnel.

When asked about his acceptance speech, Professor Park Geum-ran said, "I am happy to receive a commendation from the Minister of Agriculture despite many people who have made efforts to develop the domestic horse industry," and added, "I will take it as a meaning to contribute more to the development of the horse industry in the future and work hard."Meanwhile, Seorabeol University is actively engaged in volunteer activities related to rehabilitation horseback riding to enhance and promote the image of the domestic horse industry. The Masagwa of Seorabeol University participates in nearby rehabilitation centers for the disabled and events for the disabled every year to show rehabilitation horseback riding activities for social participation.

In addition, he participated in designing and writing national certificates for rehabilitation horseback riding in Korea, making efforts to establish a foundation for rehabilitation horseback riding in Korea and expand the base. Last year, he was appointed as an executive of the Korea Rehabilitation Horse Association and was designated as a cooperative organization for rehabilitation horseback riding in Korea. In addition, as an executive of the Korean Rehabilitation Horse Association, he attended the 2015 World Rehabilitation Horse Association General Assembly to attract the "2021 World Rehabilitation Horse Association" to Korea, and has been a member of the Gyeongju Regional Development Council, contributing to policy reflection for the development of the horse industry in Gyeongju.

Thanks to your efforts, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs has prepared budgeting and business guidelines to implement the student horse riding support project from January 2018, and as a result, it is very encouraging to increase the utilization rate of the horse racing course even in winter, the off-season.A new beginning is always full of hope. The newly launched Korea Racing Authority (KRA) plans to do its best to solve problems such as livestock farming in the horse industry, the application of electricity to horse racing courses and horseback riding insurance as soon as possible. I believe that our ability can be doubled when we practice with earnestness. We will work together to solve difficult problems and contribute to the development of the horse racing industry.

I hope you achieve everything you wish, and I wish everyone in the horse industry a busy and exciting year, especially as the sound of horse hooves shaking the earth and earth vibrates again. Looking back, the past year has been a very difficult and difficult year. The hard work that has been done for many years has collapsed overnight, and in particular, the image of the horse industry, including horseback riding, has been greatly undermined, the number of citizens visiting the horse racing course has decreased, and people have been criticized for not doing anything wrong. It is said that risks and opportunities coexist in crises. Taking lessons from the fact that we must join forces to show unity in times of difficulty, we gathered together to form the National Horse Racing Authority,

This is an industrial activity that helps livestock farmers generate income and a movement to promote health to the public. Therefore, I am confident that it will ultimately establish itself as an important position in the livestock industry in Korea in the future. To that end, we need to develop a system and build a control tower that will enable the training and management of experts above all else, and the main goal should be to revitalize the youth horse riding of consumers in the future, which will increase demand. In addition, investment and efforts should be made to cultivate and assist horse producers in case demand increases. As for the successful cases of France that we will benchmark, the government led the way in controlling the industry to provide various supports and public relations,
