PhD. Associate Prof. Kwon Chang Dok, a section head at the Faculty of Mining Engineering, is a competent scientist who has made a distinguished contribution to the agricultural development of the country and to the improvement of the people’s living standard. Having developed a paddy rice cultivation method by electrical pulse water treatment, he has introduced and generalized it to a huge number of farms across the country in the last nine years.
Finding that the water treatment technology highly effective in floatation and leaching of nonferrous mineral significantly influences the growth of animals and plants by activating water, he started research for introducing it to stockbreeding, fish farming and vegetable farming followed by paddy rice farming. Starting from a 500-phyong (1 phyong = 3.954 sq. yds) test rice field, he rapidly expanded the area year by year. As a result, he made proud successes of increased yield of a huge amount of rice in a hundred thousand jongbo (1 jongbo = 2.451 acres) of paddy-fields in 2023.
In the course of making a lot of scientific research successes, he was highly appreciated by Chairman
During those days, he moved into a new flat in Kyongru-dong in April, 2022, and he had the greatest honor of having a significant photo session with the respected Comrade
Now he is full of enthusiasm to devote all his talent, wisdom and passion to open up a breakthrough for the economic development of the country with torchlight of science and technology, bearing in mind the trust and expectation of the Party and the fatherland that put him forward as a state top-honor scientist & technician.
