Premier Kim Tok Hun, who is member of the Presidium of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, inspected the agricultural and light industry sectors.

Making the rounds of different farms in South Phyongan and North and South Hwanghae provinces including those in Sukchon, Phyongwon, Hwangju, Jaeryong and Yonan counties and Sariwon City, Kim gave pep talks to the agricultural workers who are working hard to thoroughly implement the decisions of the Third Enlarged Meeting of the Political Bureau of the Eighth Central Committee of the WPK which called for wrapping up this year's farming.

He said that they should manure and cultivate crops in a responsible way to the end to increase the grain yield to the maximum, do qualitative harvesting and threshing at the right time by mobilizing all forces and means and ensuring good timing of processes, and put efforts into drying and storing grains to prevent any loss.

Noting that farming preparations for the next year should be made in a foresighted way, he underscored the need to increase the acreages of wheat and barley and sow seeds and manure and cultivate the crops as required by the Juche farming method.

As he learned about the production at the Pyongyang Kim Jong Suk Textile Mill, the Pyongyang Daily Necessities Factory, the Pothonggang Footwear Factory and the Pyongyang Rayon Yarn Factory, he underscored the need to lay firm foundations for boosting the production by regarding it as the main direction to promote domestic production of raw materials and recycling, and to decisively increase the production of consumer goods.

Field consultative meetings stressed the need to scrupulously organize operations and command for properly finishing this year's farming in the field of agriculture and discussed measures to hold fast to reducing cost and improving quality as key points of economic management, positively introduce advanced technologies and properly supply raw and other materials in the field of light industry.
