[Hankuk Rural News Reporter Ahn Hyeong-jun] Before the domestic pork industry acquired a modernized production system in the 1990s, there was a pig farmers' cooperative that was a step ahead of others by pushing for the integration of breeding pigs, feed, and management, and now actively moving beyond productivity improvement to aim for taste and quality enhancement, the Yangpyeong Pig Farmers' Cooperative. Operating the 'Fork Valley Pork' brand, the Yangpyeong Pig Farmers' Cooperative has grown to become a representative pig farmers' cooperative. We looked into the current status and future plans of the Yangpyeong Pig Farmers' Cooperative. #Established over 40 years ago, Yangpyeong Pig Farmers' Cooperative, standing as a representative pig farmers' cooperative, was established in 1983 by 106 pork farmers in the Gyeongnam region and currently has 430 members.
