新加坡：韩国与新加坡签署智慧农场合作备忘录 设联合委员会并推企业合作
韩国农林畜产食品部11月2日宣布，韩国与新加坡已签署一份智慧农场合作谅解备忘录，将设立联合委员会，促进两国相关企业与机构之间的合作。签约于10月30日在新加坡举行的第26届东盟与中日韩（东盟+3）农林部长会议期间完成。
韩国农林畜产食品部次官 Kim Jong-gu 说，他在会议期间与新加坡永续发展与环境部长傅海燕（Grace Fu）签署了备忘录。备忘录内容包括成立智慧农场联合委员会、技术、政策与信息交流，以及推动两国企业和机构合作。韩国农林畜产食品部计划以此为基础扩大两国农业交流，并为韩国智慧农场企业进入新加坡市场拓宽通道，双方还就向新加坡本地企业与分销商扩大智慧农场业务与韩国食品出口进行了讨论。
Kim Jong-gu 在东盟+3农林部长会议主旨演讲中强调加强区域粮食安全网络、应对气候变化与推广数字创新农业技术的重要性。他说，自2013年东盟+3大米紧急储备（APTERR）建立以来，韩国贡献了累计78万吨储备大米总量的72%，今年还将再提供5900吨大米。他还介绍了韩国的数据驱动种植控制、超级智能（SI）病虫害检测与无人机应用等智慧农业技术，以及发射农业专用卫星提升精准农业政策的计划。
在新加坡期间，Kim Jong-gu 参访了运营全球最高室内垂直农场的 GreenPhytos 公司，了解自动化与基于超级智能的精准农业技术和环保叶菜生产，并与当地韩餐馆、农产品进口商、分销商及在新加坡经营的韩国企业代表会面，听取扩大韩国食品出口的意见。
Singapore: South Korea and Singapore Sign Smart Farm MOU With Joint Committee and Company Partnerships
South Korea's Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs announced on November 2 that South Korea and Singapore have signed a memorandum of understanding on smart farm cooperation, establishing a joint committee and promoting cooperation among related companies and institutions. The signing took place on October 30 in Singapore, on the sidelines of the 26th ASEAN+3 Agriculture Ministers' Meeting.
Deputy Minister Kim Jong-gu said he signed the MOU with Grace Fu, Singapore's Minister for Sustainability and the Environment. The MOU includes the establishment of a joint committee for smart farming, the exchange of technology, policies and information, and the promotion of cooperation among relevant companies and institutions. The ministry plans to use the agreement to enhance agricultural exchanges between the two countries and broaden the foundation for South Korean smart farm companies to enter the Singapore market, and discussions were also held on expanding smart farm initiatives and Korean food exports to local businesses and distributors in Singapore.
In his keynote speech at the ASEAN+3 meeting, Kim emphasised strengthening regional food security networks, responding to climate change and promoting cooperation in digital and innovative agricultural technologies. He noted that South Korea has contributed 72 percent of the total 780,000 tonnes of rice stockpiled since the ASEAN+3 Emergency Rice Reserve (APTERR) was established in 2013, and that it will provide an additional 5,900 tonnes of rice this year. He also introduced South Korea's data-driven growth control, super intelligence (SI) pest detection and drone application technologies, as well as plans to launch agriculture-specific satellites to enhance precision farming.
During his stay, Kim visited GreenPhytos, which operates the world's tallest indoor vertical farm, to observe automated and SI-based precision agriculture technologies and eco-friendly leafy vegetable production, and met local Korean restaurants, agricultural importers, distributors and representatives of Korean companies operating in Singapore to gather feedback on expanding Korean food exports.
