Pyongyang, July 18 (KCNA) -- The Academy of Agricultural Science in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea has paid big efforts to developing and introducing core, basic technologies. Agro-scientists succeeded in intermingling high-yield potato seeds highly immune to disease and virus, with common varieties of seed to establish a system of cultivating disease- and virus-free potato seeds. Such technology was applied to the cultivation of fruits, vegetables and industrial crops, too. The technology makes it possible to mass-produce virus-free apple saplings. They are also working to apply nano technologies to rice cultivation. Only tens of grams of nano sterilizer are needed to disinfect 100 kilograms of rice seeds. Besides, scientists developed software which helps putting farming on a scientific basis. |
