[Livestock and Fisheries Newspaper=Reporter Nara Park] Sejong's beekeeping industry is preparing for a new leap forward by strengthening its organizational foundation. The Sejong branch of the Korea Beekeeping Association, officially launched on the 13th, has been reorganized from a 'branch' to a 'chapter', securing independence and representativeness as a regional hub organization. This upgrade is expected to serve as a foundation for industrial growth linked to the regional agricultural and ecological environment, as well as protecting the rights of Sejong beekeepers. On this day, the '1st Sejong Chapter of the Beekeeping Association Upgrade Memorial Ceremony and Founding General Assembly' was held at the Sejong Agricultural Technology Center, formalizing the launch of the chapter with around 150 local beekeepers, related agencies, and city officials in attendance.
