One day in April Juche 52 (1963), President Kim Il Sung met with agricultural scientists and indicated the way to be followed by the agricultural science of the DPRK.
That day, he said that the country is limited in its land but every valley has different climatic and windy conditions, so the grain problem can be solved only when scientific research is intensified to suit the regional conditions. To this end, it is necessary to properly build a research centre, he added.
He said that the Academy of Agricultural Science should be built in Pyongyang and its branches be set up in every region to intensify the research into agricultural science suited to the regional conditions. For this purpose, he clarified the need to organize branches of the Academy of Agricultural Science with the then Haeju University of Agriculture, Wonsan University of Agriculture and others as centers.
After the establishment of the South Hwanghae Provincial Branch of the Academy of Agricultural Science (then Haeju Branch) and the Kangwon Provincial Branch of the Academy of Agricultural Science (then Wonsan Branch) on August 7, 1963, the President mobilized the construction team to build the branches in a short span of time despite the difficult situation of the country so that the newly formed branches could discharge their duties with credit and even sent scientific research equipment and test seeds to them.
He also indicated in detail the orientation of the research work of the branches and the ways to do so.
Thanks to his energetic guidance for strengthening the regional bases for agricultural science research, the South Hwanghae Provincial Branch and the Kangwon Provincial Branch of the Academy of Agricultural Science could be turned into scientific research bases for studying seeds and cultivation methods suited to the regional features of the western and eastern coastal areas of the DPRK. -0-
