West Coast Exchange, North Korea Watcher Conference, Sept. 2026

It is wheat and barley harvesting season in the DPRK.

Upholding the idea and spirit of the Enlarged Meeting of the Fifth Plenary Meeting of the Eighth Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea, agricultural workers have turned out in the harvesting of wheat and barley to finish the farming of the crops well.

Officials of the Agricultural Commission and agricultural guidance organs at all levels organize and command scrupulously the work to do farming in time and qualitatively in all farms after fixing the right time for harvest by surveying regional characteristics and the growth of the crops.

Agricultural workers of South Hwanghae Province harvest wheat and barley of over one thousand hectares every day.

They are expanding the harvest area every day by waging a vigorous collective emulation drive and raising the operation rate of combines and threshing machines.

Pyongyang fires the zeal of farmers in harvesting the crops.

Now that farm operations are under way simultaneously including second-crop seedling transplanting and rice paddy weeding, farms arrange manpower rationally and raise the utilization rate of tractors and other means of delivery so as to make progress in harvesting wheat and barley.

Farmers of South Phyongan Province, who sowed seed and manured and cultivated the crops assiduously despite unfavourable weather conditions, are gathering in wheat and barley as planned while directing efforts to preventing loss of grains.

City and counties of North Hwanghae Province push forward harvest and delivery in a three dimensional way by ensuring well-knit scheduling of farming processes and concentrating forces on crop harvest.
