Growing Enthusiasm for Reaping Bumper Harvest without Fail

2024.9.10.


Keeping Deep in Mind Significance of Rice

 

As I greet the September holiday, I keenly realize the significance of rice depicted in the national emblem of the dignified and the deep meaning of famous proposition "Rice means Socialism." President Kim Il Sung personally put forward.

We, mindful of pride that we are working at the honored worksite associated with the field guidance of President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il, have devoted our pure conscience and sincere efforts for doing this year’s farming well with single mind.

We have reaped bumper harvest in the farming of earlier crops and now, push forward with the maize thrashing and purchasing at final stage.

Now, we expect a good crop of rice, too.

Let us contribute to prosperity and development of our country with increased grain production by dint of devoted efforts!

Let us prove our patriotism with this year’s farming result.

This is the pledge of faith we made keeping in mind the significance of rice depicted in the national emblem.

Remembering Benevolence of Country

 

We have done farming annually; however never has there been enthusiasm to equal our workteam members’.

It is so natural.

Our workteam members have greeted the housewarming as a follow-up to the last year’s and have been impressed by the endless benevolence of the Party and the country.

So we have made a firm pledge to repay the benevolence with increased production of rice.

Our workteam members have changed in their work attitude and redoubled their consciousness that they are the masters of the country’s granary.

They made efforts to protect the crops from damage by heavy rain and high temperature.

Thanks to their sincerity the rice crop looks excellent.

We will not forget the benevolence of the Party even a moment and will become a real-farmer collective, patriot workteam as desired by the Party.

As Befits Frontline Soldier 

 

Whenever looking at the farm fields, I cannot repress my solemn feeling.

I frequently recollect the trust and expectation of a farm official who called upon me to work hard, always remembering that the agricultural front is the forefront in defending socialism, when I was assigned to the farm after the military service.

At that time, I undertook the low-yielding area for myself with the same spirit and mettle of my military service period, recalling again the meaning of the forefront.

It was easier said than done to do farm work for me, but I worked hard with the consciousness that this land which I was cultivating with my hands was a precious part of the country and a new post I was defending.

Thus, since the first year of farming, I have joined the ranks of high-yielding farmers.

This year’s unfavorable climate conditions created many difficulties. But I made strenuous efforts to fulfill my duty as a master of farming, as a result, bringing about the high yield in maize farming.

I firmly resolve to devote all my patriotic strength and enthusiasm to the farm fields for the grateful motherland.
