The Gangwon-do Agricultural Technology Institute held an online export conference to help agricultural companies in the province expand into the northern region's agriculture. The conference saw participation from four provincial companies and expressed interest from Mongolia in Korean vinyl houses, glass greenhouses, and agricultural machinery. Mongolia also explored the possibility of cultivating corn seeds from Gangwon-do and adjusting specific cultivation regions and schedules. Since 1999, Gangwon-do has been operating an agricultural exchange business with Mongolia, with a focus on high quality Korean products as there has been an increasing demand for these due to issues with the durability of previously used inexpensive Chinese agricultural materials.
