농공학의 역할과 비젼

Future Perspectives on Agricultural Engineering in Korea

Continuous decreases in national budget for the field of agricultural engineering indicate that it plays less important role in Korean agriculture compared to the past. It also suggests that its function should be changed in order to meet the needs of future agriculture. Unfortunately, there are few private companies for agricultural engineering except for farm machinery. Fostering private business for agricultural engineering may be one of the top priority for the development of the field.
