Officials and employees of the Kyenam Livestock Farm under the South Hwanghae Provincial Rural Economy Committee are proud of their workplace.
Long and wide pasturing roads, vast natural meadow behind the roads, animal sheds standing in rows, cosy dwelling houses and fruit trees go in perfect harmony, presenting a beautiful scenery.
“In the past, it was so cold and windy here that all the animals ran away and only bears remained, so it was called Komnolkol (valley where bears play). But today, our branch farm is renowned for raising many goats, and many livestock units come here to learn our experience,” said a pasturer of Branch Farm No. 3.
She added that, whenever she saw the flocks of goats coming out of barns at the grazing time and flowing to the grasslands neck and neck, she felt quite pleased as it reminded her of a phrase of a children’s song that milk barrels of the kindergarten overflow with milk.
The vast grassland of the farm sprawls over nearly 2 000 hectares and the grazing route is 40km long.
Not content with such huge grassland, the farm creates artificial pastures with orchard grass and rye, and plants many acacias and bamboo-willows for shades in a planned way every year.
While goats are grazing, pasturers are busy cutting the grass for their night snacks.
“It has become commonplace for pasturers to stay up all night in the barn, in case there is a sick goat. They say they don’t feel tired, even if they had worked hard, at the thought that every single drop of milk will render services for good nutrition of our children,” said Phyo Myong Gwang, an official of the farm.
“The farm has kept promoting the work to improve the native goats into superior ones while preserving and increasing goats of good strains for the past decades. Now it is boosting milk production by producing good breeds by means of artificial insemination and a well-knit stockbreeding system,” he added.
The dairy products produced in the milk processing room, fully provided with up-to-date equipment and cold-storage facilities, are supplied to the children of nurseries and kindergartens in Haeju City.
“The taste and quality of dairy products produced in our farm are so good that all children enjoy drinking. Whenever we see plump and chubby children, we cherish a high sense of responsibility as the performers of the country’s childcare policy once again,” said the farm’s manager Pak Yong Nam.
