Frame agreement with NGO (Fida Int.) Seed Potato Development Project. The Seed Potato Project focuses on improving the seed and food potato production, both in quality and quantity as well as in terms of improved skills, at cooperative farms in Jonju County and partly in the whole Province. F
ida partners with three large cooperative farms, which have 500?1000 ha of farming land and 2000?3000 inhabitants each. The project started as cooperation with PMU Interlife in 2001. The aim of these cooperatives is to produce pure seed potato for those co
operative farms in the Province, which grow food potato.  The government of North Korea promotes potato production as a major element in enhancing food security in the country. The project provides the cooperatives with hands-on training in potato producti
on through experimental potato farming. A great deal of attention is also paid to ensuring existence of sufficient storage facilities and effective distribution systems. Through the project the cooperatives will improve their capacities in seed and food po
tato farming. As the potato farming at the cooperatives improves, the nutritional base that currently relies much on rice alone will become more varied. This, in turn, will improve the quality of life at the project farms.
