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 racing horses produced is higher. So it is important how to use racing 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 racing horses for horseback riding. For example, I think the main reason our company used inexpensive horse racing horses was that they were well-coined and trained and distributed as horseback riding.

There is no organization in Japan that combines horse racing and horseback riding like the Korean Horse Association. The JRA Japan Central Horse Racing Authority is in charge of horse racing and the Japan National Horse Association is in charge of horse racing. Of course, the Korean Horse Association receives a subsidy from the Japanese Central Horse Racing Authority, but the two organizations have different purposes and activities. From horse production to breeding, training, and horseback riding in one place like the Korean Horse Association. The key is to make a profit by increasing the efficiency of the horse industry from horse production to horse racing.

Such as easing regulations on the installation of horseback riding facilities, and that the government's budget support is essential because there is no revenue model for the production and sales of horseback riding in Korea. There were also announcements that pointed out the lack of basic infrastructure in other industries except for the horse racing industry. Moon Yoon-young, head of the Korean Horse Association's Horse Industry Promotion Agency, said he was motivated to train professional human resources in the horse society, pointing out the absence of a professional manpower training system and career certification system that will lead the horse industry, and the lack of a linkage system to employment. In particular, he also announced plans to establish a new horseback riding instructor and promote national recognition in addition to plans to implement the horse industry qualification test on the 8th.

From May this year, I asked the horse society to reflect it in next year's budget, but there was no reply. And it was not included in the budget that will be submitted to the Agriculture and Forestry Ministry until September 30. At the time of the agreement, they promised active cooperation between the horse society and Jeju Island, but now everyone is saying, "I don't know who I am." I am the chairman representing the farmers who produce Hallama and will go all the way to receive the subsidy. This happening reflects only the individual position of the government officials in charge of the horse industry in Jeju. If you are a public servant in charge of the horse industry, you should think about how you can ensure that horse producers in Jeju can raise horses safely and revitalize the horse industry.

An official from Gyeongsangbuk-do said, "In order to differentiate Yeongcheon Horse Racing Park from other parks and create a national leisure recreation space that breaks away from the image of gambling, it is essential to install large-scale park facilities and amusement facilities."The Korea Racing Authority received promises to expand transportation convenience facilities and open access roads in Busan and South Gyeongsang Province as it pushed for the construction of the Busan Gyeongnam Racing Park, but even now, seven years after the opening of the Pukyong Racing Park, most of the promises on the access road as well as the expansion of transportation convenience have not been fulfilled.

Personally, however, I don't think that the Jeju horse industry should collapse. As far as I know, the budget of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry related to the horse industry at the end of next year has not been secured at all in Jeju. It is a matter of marking the livestock of horse meat sold in Jeju. About 1,100 horse meat are slaughtered in a year, of which about 60 percent are made of mud, 30 percent of them are made of Hallama, and 10 percent of them are made of Jeju horse. The plan is to indicate exactly what kind of horse meat it is. I went with the president of the Korea Racing Authority and the president of the Jeju Horse Association to ask for such matters, but there was no answer at all, saying that they would do it.

Currently, the Jeju Livestock Promotion Agency is preparing a public offering for the operator of the horse training base center, and if it is attracted, it is expected that the establishment of the lineage of Hallama will accelerate. Two trainers have already been secured, and we plan to thoroughly prepare in accordance with the outline of the contest. It also holds a national horse-riding competition with Hallama.It will also increase the brand value of Hallama by giving horseback riders the perception that Hallama is a good riding horse. If there is a chance, I am willing to hold international competitions beyond domestic competitions. Malaysian international judges attended the competition, and they responded positively to Hallama.

test008

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. As it is related to various organizations and organizations, it seems that some signs were not correct. As a result, the timing of the competition was a little late, and the competition was held twice. There may be differences of opinion in holding a single competition, and misunderstandings may be missed in the process.

The Hanrama Producers Association wants to become the leading leader among domestic horse industry organizations. What is noteworthy about this competition is that international regulations of the International Horses Association are applied. It is not just a simple endurance competition held in Korea, but it is also equipped with international certification by applying international regulations so that participants can participate in international competitions in the future. In addition, we are preparing opportunities to participate in endurance competitions held in Korea overseas, and we plan to work hard to enhance Hanrama's international competitiveness.

However, in order for the horse industry to develop, it is necessary to develop certain areas such as horse racing, not to regulate them, but to develop them together, and to have full support from the state and local governments. In other words, it proved that the horse industry cannot be biased toward specific areas, but is a convergence and complex industry that can create high added value. Dr. Lee Jong-eon (Nanji Livestock Testing Station), who presented "Customized Riding Horse Production," voiced the same voice. Dr. Lee, who claimed that "Without horse racing, the entire horse industry cannot grow." He argued that the horse racing industry should play a key role in driving the entire horse industry to train professionals in the production, supply, fostering and assistance of racehorses, and that the entire horse industry can be large only when it grows together with the horse racing industry and the additional industry (horse meat, etc.).

However, there are also a number of people who are opposed to the plan. After hearing about the plan to pay for parking lots next year and the conversion of some seats to spectators, many horse racing fans complain that the plan is not to expand the service to fans who enjoy horse racing in a difficult economy, but to give double whammy. There are also concerns within the society that the project, which was being pursued due to the rejection of most of the business plans, is falling into place.The crisis in the horse racing industry due to the spread of illegal horse racing and the overlapping sales decline amid regulations by the Audit and Inspection Committee is now rising to the surface and hitting the horse racing industry.

As such, the Korean Lama Producers Association is taking steps toward new challenges for the Korean marathon and the development of the domestic horse industry. The problem is the realistic wall that the 'budget' for promoting the business is not sufficiently secured. Amid the difficult reality, Kang Dong-woo, president of the Korean Lama Producers Association, who plays the role of the captain at the center of Hanrama's new challenge, was met at the site of the Hanrama Festa National Endurance Competition. This competition is designed to prove Hanrama's value as a horseback riding in Korea along with the expansion of the base of domestic horseback riding.

In Korea Martha High School, there are many students, so they take classes in groups. I am the type to improve when someone tells me next to one-on-one road. As I rode alone and rode in a comfortable position, my posture became solid. It was difficult because it took a long time to fix my firm posture. I injured the ligament of my big toe three weeks before the first practical examination of the certificate. I was diagnosed with a five-week rest by the doctor. I lost my composure and was anxious because the test was just around the corner. I only went home and hospital for three weeks The day before I took the test, I went to school and practiced only once with my classmates.

The adjustment of the site boundary of Yeongcheon Horse Racing Park is aimed at raising the awareness of the park by securing the right to view by incorporating hilly areas near the main entrance to the horse racing park, linking it to the development of Pungnakji, a nearby tourist area, and harmonizing it with the surrounding landscape.In addition, a large-scale amusement facility will be installed around the main entrance road of Yeongcheon Horse Racing Park to form a park belt and build a luxury horse racing park with the concept of a leisure and recreation space that can be enjoyed with family. At the working-level meeting held on the 8th, the government agreed to exchange opinions on the transfer site following the change of the boundary of the horse racing park and the opening of the access road, and to confirm the site boundary and facility layout as soon as possible.

Students come to the school every Wednesday to take rehabilitation riding classes, and they applied for volunteers at the beginning of the semester and gained a lot of experience by volunteering next to them. In the second semester of the first year, I prepared a demonstration test for the second class of rehabilitation horseback riding. At that time, Professor Park Geum-ran and Instructor Song Yeon-hee kindly explained and demonstrated next to me, helping me to teach myself. As such, the intimacy of the students receiving rehabilitation horseback riding was increased and the burden of the class decreased, and the worry and tension about the test decreased. Riding a horse was the most difficult.

test008

After I failed the rehabilitation horse riding instructor, I thought, 'Let's work hard for a year and stick to it', so I rode a horse even on a cumbersome, cold, and unwanted day. It was really hard, but the side helped me a lot. Professor Choo Ho-geun, Professor Park Geum-ran, instructor and my classmates led me. Whenever I had a slump and it was hard, and I didn't want to do it, I was able to do it, so I think I got a certificate by saying, 'You can do it. I learned practical skills in the first grade, so I didn't feel pressured about the difference between the two certificates. I learned general horse riding and racing magic in advance at school and prepared for the certificate more easily.

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 and support of export agricultural products from production to export,

We will do our best to prevent the inflow of diseases by thoroughly inspecting borders at airports to prevent the inflow of harmful livestock diseases and plant pests. In particular, we will do our best to prevent the inflow of diseases by preemptive measures such as monitoring and inspecting all countries of the outbreak of African swine fever, a foreign livestock disease, by inflow risk route, and strengthening foot-and-mouth disease and AI testing for imported portable agricultural products and strengthening plant pest quarantine. In the field of plant quarantine, we will establish a comprehensive safety management system that encompasses safety management of diseases, pests, and LMOs overseas, border, and domestic in border-oriented quarantine.

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. 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 have been established, 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 has been reduced by improving animal protection promotion and animal protection center operation systems.

As such, last year, the quarantine headquarters ran tirelessly to create a healthy livestock environment for animals and the people based on the efforts of all employees and to realize a border quarantine that protects the agricultural and livestock industry. 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 pests and the increased likelihood of entering Korea, the continued emergence of new and mutant animal diseases, the increased demand for field problem-solving research, and the increased public expectations for agricultural and livestock safety.

The Korean Society for the Study of the Korean Horse Industry (KSHRI), a research group under the Korea Society of Animal Resources and Sciences (Chairman Choi Yoon-jae, Seoul National University professor), held a "2012 Autumn Academic Symposium, policies to foster the Korean horse industry, and strategies to revitalize it" at the Ugok International Conference Hall of Konkuk University on Dec. 4. The symposium, hosted by the Korea Society of Animal Resources and Science and sponsored by the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation and the Korea Horse Association, pointed out the problems of the domestic horse industry, which is still in its infancy. However, at the same time, the problems were shown to be "possible" to foster the domestic horse industry.

For this reason, many horse racing fans are calling for the Yeongcheon Horse Racing Park to secure transportation convenience from the beginning and to make sure that it plans to reorganize or newly open the surrounding road network. Meanwhile, Yeongcheon City announced that the first Yeongcheon Horse Academy of Professional Human Resources will open from the 19th (Mon) to foster professional human resources in the horse industry following the opening of Yeongcheon Horse Racing Park in 2016. At the end of this year, the Academy of Professional Human Resources Development was set up to prepare for the full-fledged implementation of the Horse Industry Promotion Act and the opening of Yeongcheon Horse Racing Park, to foster professional human resources for the development of the horse industry, and to prepare for information and education opportunities and horse national certificates for farmers wishing to raise horses.

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.

In particular, Dr. Lee Jong-eon pointed out that horse specifications, breeding levels and environments are the same as those of advanced countries, but core technologies are below average. Unlike cows and pigs, which are the same livestock sector, the horse industry is most important in terms of "tilting (pure) and training" technology, which lacks professional manpower and has a low level of technology in Korea. In addition, the Thoroughbred Seasuma is producing not only racehorses but also horseback riding in Korea because it relies on imports and has almost no domestic seasuma, but it is in a very difficult situation due to unstable demand and economic difficulties. Nevertheless, Dr. Lee Jong-eon said that it is necessary to foster horseback riding as in the European case, as the horse riding industry will develop, such as rehabilitation horse riding and life horse riding becoming popular in the future.
