Thank you for your lecture.
My name is Kim Sang-gyeom and I am working on organic farming in South Korea.
When I saw your lecture, I realized that the problems of agriculture that India is facing.
I thought it was similar to the case of Korea.
I think it is becoming more difficult to grow crops due to climate change.
Increasing variations in the appearance of insect pests, falling income for farmers, and fruits that consumers like less, etc.
I’d like to suggest one thing to you.
Currently, farmers in Korea are using one drug to produce agricultural products.
The effect is superior, so we are exporting to Japan, the Philippines, Vietnam, and Uzbekistan.
The effect of the drug makes the crops grow strong. It is used to treat viruses and bacteria that damage plants on Earth.
As a result, farmers’ incomes increase.
The yield increases by 30% compared to before use.
We can send you the patented medicine if you need the data.
If you have any further questions, please contact me by email.
Thank you.
