Rice-transplantation Makes Headway in South Phyongan Province

Rice-transplantation progresses apace in South Phyongan Province.

According to data available, the province began rice-transplantation on a full scale on May ２０ and has overfulfilled the daily plan by over １.２ times since then. As of May ２５, the rice-transplantation in the main area was done by nearly ６６%. Over １０ farms, ８０-odd workteams and more than ２４０ sub-workteams finished rice-transplantation and the figures are increasing with the passage of time.

Now that the cultivation area of nutritive cold-bed rice seeds has increased by over ８０% and unfavorable situations have been created due to changeable weather conditions, the province maps out a more innovative plan for rice-transplantation and pushes ahead with it in a persevering manner.

The provincial Party Committee lets the might of ideological offensive be fully displayed and sees to it that the officials, Party members and working people of the province turn out as one, thus powerfully propelling the struggle to secure a firm guarantee for increased grain production for this year.

The provincial, city and county agricultural guidance organs markedly enhance their sense of responsibility and role.

The province gives definite priority to harrowing, drawing of water to paddy fields and other preceding processes while further intensifying technical guidance. Consequently, they expect with certainty to successfully finish rice-transplantation in the main area till late May.
