Agricultural technical schools were set up in more than 170 cities and counties across the country last year.

Now, tens of thousands of agricultural workers have entered these schools and are trained as men of civilization, intelligent workers and talents with practical abilities who will lead the new era of rural transformation.

In order to train by themselves more and better talents needed for their own sectors, units and regions, the schools train skilled workers including tractor drivers, livestock farmers and electric machine repairmen, as well as technicians in all fields of agriculture such as crop, livestock and fruit farming, farm machinery and agricultural information technology.

Lots of agricultural workers improve their technical knowledge and skills in the field of farm machinery through experiments and practical training in Kumya County, in which the material and technical foundations of its agricultural technical school have been consolidated. The agricultural workers of the Phungsong Farm of the South Hamgyong Provincial Rural Economy Committee and the Kuman Farm in Kumya County, who study at the school, presented several inventions conducive to agricultural production in the course of actively applying the knowledge they learned at school to practice.

Paechon County also puts in effort to train technicians and skilled workers in the field of crop and livestock farming and farm machines as required by the regional characteristics, and farmers at several farms prepare themselves to become intelligent workers possessed of versatile technical knowledge and skills.

Farmers of the Yokkudo Farm, who study at the agricultural technical school, work hard to get a good grasp of tractors and other kinds of farm machines as farm machines are more widely used than ever before at their farm.

Agricultural workers are eager to learn at the agricultural technical schools to produce much more fresh and nutritious vegetables in the regions in which large-scale vegetable production bases are located.

The number of electric machine repairmen capable of skilfully operating and properly repairing and maintaining pumping and power equipment continues to increase in South Phyongan, South Hwanghae and other provinces.
