Striving for Successful Conclusion of Wheat and Barley Farming The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un said:
Determined to sound the triumphant drum in all-grain farming this meaningful year marking the 80th anniversary of the Party’s founding, agricultural officials and workers nationwide strive to harvest wheat and barley completely in the shortest time.
Aiming to Finish Harvest in Five Days Officials and agricultural workers in Hwangju County joyfully anticipate firmly securing an average yield increase of over 1 ton per jungbo (approx. 2.45 acres) compared to last year across all wheat fields. They devote themselves to successfully concluding all-grain farming. Foreseeing a substantial wheat production increase, the county flawlessly prepared agricultural machinery and storage containers. It set the goal to finish harvest in five days. Since day one, rational work organization and maximized machinery utilization achieved high daily results. The county prioritized deploying multiple combine harvesters to units with large wheat areas like Ryongchon, Koyon, Sonbong, and Ryonggung Farms. It also ensured fuel and spare parts supply to enable big farms to lead work. Simultaneously, it focused on uplifting lagging units. Under the county Party committee’s guidance, capable officials from county-level institutions were dispatched to backward work teams. Amidst county mobile art agitation teams’ songs resounding even in remote fields, amazing innovations are created at every farm and work team. By June 23, the county recorded 91% harvest completion. With hundredfold courage and surging spirit, it pushes forward harvesting, threshing, drying, and purchasing comprehensively and rapidly. Jang Eun Yong, Correspondent of this Publication
Increasing Field Threshing Proportion Kowon County rapidly deployed mobile threshers to increase field threshing proportion. Planning to raise field threshing during all-grain farming, the county devoted effort to thorough preparation. It substantially repaired mobile threshers and secured spare parts and fuel in advance. County officials inspected wheat and barley fields to identify suitable deployment sites. Rational placement aims to collectively raise the county’s overall threshing results. With all preparations flawless, officials dynamically command operations, striving to maximize mobile thresher utilization on farms. Farms set field sequences and deploy labor and means accordingly, significantly increasing field threshing proportion compared to previous periods. Phungnam and Up Farms operate mobile threshers at full capacity. Agricultural workers, mindful that higher field threshing proportion minimizes grain loss, display meticulous work ethic, daily surpassing plans. Not lagging, other farms like Jinsa Farm also raise results by increasing mobile thresher utilization. Kim Ryong
Mobilizing All Transport Means Muncheon City mobilizes all transport means to promptly carry harvested grain. Upholding Party policy to change grain production structure, farms citywide significantly expanded cultivation area. Scientific cultivation management yielded a rare all-grain harvest, vastly increasing workloads. Deeply mindful that the success of a year’s toil depends on rapidly concluding harvest and threshing, officials and agricultural workers citywide rose as one. The city actively mobilizes transport means to harvest ripe grain without delay, matching labor tension and high workload. Farms, having reliably repaired machinery, operate tractors and other transport means at full capacity. The city ensures institutions and enterprises responsibly provide their transport means to farms. Particularly, it rationally calculates and deploys based on harvest volume and transport distance to maximize utilization. The city also focuses on work with drivers, ensuring grain cut daily is transported daily. It deeply cares to prevent grain loss during transport. With concentrated labor and means, citywide wheat and barley harvest nears completion. Text and Photo by Correspondent of this Publication
At Raengjong Farm in Ongjin County Musan Mining Complex Conducts 700,000m³ Mass Blasting Officials and working class of Musan Mining Complex, a leading iron ore production base, successfully conducted a 700,000m³ mass blasting on June 23, shaking Mt.

Upon hearing news of the 8th Plenary Meeting of the 12th WPK Central Committee, officials set an ambitious plan for 700,000m³ mass blasting and powerfully mobilized miners. While preparing a 2.5 million m³ mass blasting, drilling numerous blast holes tens of meters deep and securing vast explosives was daunting. But Musan’s working class, step-by-step aware of their heavy responsibility to defend the metallurgical industry’s lifeline, displayed bold courage, exertion, and unflagging passion. Amidst preparing the 2.5 million m³ blast, they drilled blast holes for the 700,000m³ operation in just 20 days and fully secured explosives through their own strength and technology. Officials set up a command post at Mt. Cholsan, heightening miners’ revolutionary, struggle, and patriotic fervor through innovative political work and practical leading-by-example. Based on accurate rock analysis, the technical group designed blasts for higher efficiency. Technical innovations shortened preparation time. Miners and technicians at the Rochon Mine created efficient drilling methods, significantly accelerating speed while reducing material consumption and improving efficiency. The North Hamgyong Provincial Party Committee actively supported blast preparation. The thunder of 700,000m³ mass blasting at Mt. Cholsan clearly demonstrated the heroic spirit and sure-win mettle of Musan’s working class to glorify this year of the Party’s 80th anniversary as one of special significance in national history.
Text and Photo by Correspondent of this Publication Mobilizing the Masses’ Creative Initiative Work of Officials at Kangso Knitwear Factory The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un said:
One day in early March, Kangso Knitwear Factory intensely discussed two issues: modernizing the factory into a knitting and dyeing base, and uninterrupted student uniform production during this period. Burdening officials was insufficient labor for both tasks. Some suggested requesting construction labor. Given most employees were women, this wasn’t unreasonable. But factory officials, including manager Kim Jong Sim, chose no easy path. They resolved to ignite a fierce technological innovation flame to enhance their own strength despite difficulties. Thus, modernization and technical innovation to solve labor issues through equipment renovation proceeded simultaneously. Officials excelled in mobilizing the masses’ creative initiative. Consider the calender machine renovation. Initially, only the technical innovation team handled it. Over time, officials admitted flaws in work organization: renovations lagged behind schedule. Learning the lesson, officials actively involved the masses. They explained the task’s importance and seriously discussed even simple suggestions. They created conditions for creative cooperation between technicians and field workers. Consequently, calender machine renovations succeeded, raising productivity per unit time while significantly saving electricity and labor. The fruits of turning technological innovation into the masses’ own task didn’t end there. As creativity surged, repairmen Choe Chol Ryong and Ri Chol Jin created a processing device praised by seamstresses for halving sewing time. The process of self-producing flocculant also shows how mobilizing mass creativity brings progress. One day, an official noticed residue from boilers. Its fineness resembled flocculant used to purify dyeing wastewater. He proposed using it as flocculant for mass discussion, gaining support from technicians like the technical section chief. Subsequently, officials and technicians researched technical materials and succeeded in self-producing flocculant by late March. The secret to fulfilling production plans while modernizing lies in fiercely stoking the flames of mass technological innovation. Ri Yong Min, Correspondent of this Publication Manufacturing Highly Efficient Non-Powered Pump Myonggan County manufactured a highly efficient non-powered pump for irrigation. County officials pushed to effectively utilize water from local rivers for irrigation and power generation. Technicians, skilled workers, and Three Revolutions Team members devoted wisdom and passion to manufacturing the non-powered pump. Recently, trial operation succeeded. This equipment can be installed anywhere with flowing water, requires no electricity or fuel, operates long-term, and lifts water to high places. Now, Three Revolutions Team members, technicians, and skilled workers strive to improve the pump’s performance and vigorously conduct technical innovation for power generation using reservoir water. Correspondent of this Publication Focusing on Equipment Management Officials and power producers at Ryesong River Youth Power Station No. 2 focus on equipment management to achieve production successes. The power station Party organization strengthens ideological education through Party publications while actively generalizing positive deeds among the masses, igniting fierce production enthusiasm. Officials, aware that production struggle results depend entirely on command, guidance, and leading by example, powerfully mobilize power producers to generate even one more watt. Generator operators strictly follow technical regulations and standard procedures under the principle of "check ten times, operate once." They reliably conduct weekly equipment inspections, patrol checks, and shift inspections, heightening the sound of increased power production. Kim Sang Won, Worker-Peasant Correspondent Elevating Responsibility and Competitive Fervor Educational Experience of Officials at Wonsan Secondary School for Orphans Recently, many officials and educators focused on education at Wonsan Secondary School for Orphans. Achievements include: selection as a 2023 "Top 10 Teacher," People’s Teacher awards, Three Honors Red Flag, splendidly equipped labs, and generalized experiences. Particularly notable is the high university admission rate. This year, dozens of graduates entered Kim Il Sung University, Kim Chaek University of Technology, and other central and provincial universities. The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un said:
Five years ago, newly appointed principal Choe Nam Ryon identified strengths and weaknesses. The Party’s affection provided optimal educational conditions. Teachers’ extraordinary responsibility in wholly raising orphans and orphans’ zeal to repay were precious assets. Yet shortcomings existed, including insufficient orientation toward new, innovative approaches. Analyzing these, officials explored and implemented methodologies to enhance education quality suited to the orphanage’s characteristics. First, they prioritized creating ample space for home education, crucial in orphans’ growth. Under Party organization guidance, the orphanage intensified ideological work to instill in staff the perspective that before being educators, they are kin. Teachers meticulously cared for orphans’ diary writing, study organization, stationery management, room tidiness, and personal hygiene with parental affection, becoming familiar in a homely atmosphere. This process opened orphans’ hearts and accurately grasped their desires and unique talents. Now, over 30 extracurricular groups operate vibrantly. A key to their effectiveness lies here. Another initiative: Monthly exhibitions and presentations showcase what subgroups learned, allowing concrete review of group activities. Outstanding works earn recognition for subgroup instructors and responsible staff, encouraging deeper affection for orphans. Countless efforts predawn or overnight—walking tens of ri, welcoming new days at the orphanage for study guidance—defy full description. That orphans repeatedly presented literary works, sketches, and calligraphy to the respected Comrade General Secretary; that many won Children’s Literature Prizes and July 15 Top Honors; that they consistently excel in national sports—clearly proves officials’ efforts in exploring and implementing new educational methodologies tailored to unit characteristics yield fruit. Elevating staff’s competitive fervor is notable. The orphanage substantially organized learning from highly skilled educators, broadening teachers’ horizons. It established a sound system for sharing advanced teaching methods through close ties with relevant units. Sometimes, teachers observed skilled educators’ review sessions during extracurricular time. To strengthen experimental practice education, it organized observations and encouraged creating high-impact teaching materials. As teachers’ enthusiasm grew and new methods emerged, the orphanage heightened competition through experience creation and generalization. A monthly meeting of all departments is representative. Here, excellent teaching methods and experiences created among teachers are actively generalized. Methods presented originate from teachers’ ideas, supplemented by collective wisdom and officials’ opinions, including Vice-Principal Han Sun Hui. Evaluating work by detailed categories, including orphans’ skills, also spurred mass competition. Notably, evaluation didn’t prioritize rankings. Rather, it focused on progress: encouragement if regressed, recognition if advanced beyond previous levels. This year’s astonishing admission rate resulted from officials’ innovative work ethic—making unit characteristics the starting point for development and repeatedly contemplating and exploring. The experience of Wonsan Secondary School for Orphans’ officials is a precious answer on focusing and implementing methodologies to uphold the Party’s will in rearing orphans at primary and secondary orphanages nationwide as stalwarts bearing the socialist powerful nation. Cho Hyang Mi, Correspondent of this Publication Advancing Work to Strengthen Self-Reliant Talent Upholding the Party’s policy of valuing science, technology, and talent, factories and enterprises nationwide focus on nurturing talent to advance unit development. Officials value factory universities’ role in systematically cultivating needed talent and continuously strengthen their material-technical foundations. The Kim Chaek Iron and Steel Complex deeply cares about enhancing Chongjin Industrial University’s education standards. To make the work-study system truly beneficial, the complex modernized lecture halls and solved various educational equipment issues. Work to improve Sangnong Industrial University’s educational conditions actively progresses at the Sangnong Mine. Mindful that nurturing sci-tech talent is vital for the unit’s destiny, mine officials refurbished lecture halls for broader knowledge acquisition and provided equipment and teaching aids. They also methodically publicize and evaluate educators achieving successes in teaching and research through diverse occasions, boosting their enthusiasm. The Kim Jong Suk Pyongyang Textile Mill set realistic phased goals to strengthen Pyongyang Industrial University’s educational foundation. It strives to realize multifunctional classrooms and lecture halls while actively ensuring optimal working and learning conditions for educators and students.
