The government will fortify cooperation with Malaysia to foster exchanges in smart ICT-mediated farming technologies, the agriculture ministry said Wednesday.

The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs said it signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Malaysia's livestock businesses in Kuala Lumpur, July 5.

Among the attendees were Animal Industry Data Korea CEO Kyeong Noh-kyum and the Malaysian Poultry Association, represented by president Kwei Yew Tong.

In December of last year, Animal Industry Data Korea and a chicken farm in Malaysia signed a contract whereby the Korean firm will provide a smart livestock farming and management service known as Farms Plan. The service encompasses livestock healthcare solutions through image data analysis.

The plan includes real-time monitoring of farming conditions and analyzes livestock feeding and behavior. This leads to disease control solutions.

Malaysia's livestock association vice president Sim Zhi Zhan, who also attended the MOU signing event, said that Korea and Malaysia will share knowledge and experience, and review best practices to identify joint business opportunities.
