In August Juche 104 (2015) the Supreme Leader went round the farm for hours, despite the blazing sunlight in midsummer, and indicated the direction and ways for increasing the fruit production by leaps. Visiting the farm again in August next year, he gave precious teachings that would serve as guidelines for its management and operation including the issues of applying productive and delicious fruit seeds and raising the soil fertility of orchard. Since then, the farm has striven to lay material and technical foundations for turning out more fruits with it as a main task to put the fruit production on a scientific and intensive basis.
