The Onchon Branch of the Paddy Research Institute under the Academy of Agricultural Science has been built and inaugurated.

Nampo City has wonderfully built the Onchon Branch as befitting an agricultural scientific research centre in hearty response to the policy of the Workers’ Party of Korea on scientific farming.

The construction of the modern branch has provided a firm guarantee for solving the sci-tech problems and seed problem arising in tideland farming on the west coast.
