摘要：The Rural Development Administration
(RDA), which
celebrated its 100th anniversary
recently (see page 5), is
the central government organization
responsible for agricultural research
and extension in Korea. Since 1906,
RDA and its forerunner, the Experiment
Station for Agricultural
Encouragement, have developed
new technologies and extended
these for the development of rural
areas and the agricultural sector.
RDA’s efforts over the last 100
years have helped Korea achieve selfsuffi
ciency in rice and other staple
foods through dissemination and
promotion of high-yielding cultivars
and improved production technologies.
RDA has also taken great
steps to improve the rural environment
and nurture new farmers.
