Win-Win Farm Startup

The YouTube program 'Startup Morning Coffee,' hosted by CEO Jeon Hwa-seong, meets viewers live every day at 8:40 AM on the 'Jeon Hwa-seong's CNTV' channel. The program deeply introduces the core competencies and market potential of various startups, and, through active two-way communication via real-time comments, it has established itself as a useful information platform for those interested in the startup ecosystem. Among the startups recently introduced, 'Save the Farms' garnered attention by proposing a low-carbon smart agriculture solution utilizing organic waste resources. This company's flagship product, a microbial agent biochar, is a slow-release fertilizer recycled from organic waste, showing excellent effects in soil purification through the removal of residual pesticides and restoring soil fertility using microbial agents. Save the Farms holds relevant technology patents and has successfully completed the Dongguk University Startup CEO and Investment Reviewer program, jointly conducted by CNT Tech and Dongguk University, earning recognition for its technological prowess and business viability. The microbial agent fertilizer developed by Save the Farms holds significant environmental value in terms of resource circulation, resource recycling, and waste resource utilization. When this fertilizer is applied to agriculture, it not only prevents soil acidification but also brings about the astonishing effect of promoting crop growth by approximately 37%. In response, CEO Jeon Hwa-seong stated, "Currently, the generation of organic waste, including 5 million tons of food waste, 4.14 million tons of sewage sludge, and approximately 50 million tons of livestock manure annually, is continuously increasing." He evaluated, "Save the Farms is highly expected to lead corporate co-prosperity and sustainable growth from an ESG perspective by utilizing these organic waste resources." Save the Farms is simultaneously realizing two important values – solving environmental problems and improving agricultural productivity – thereby opening new horizons for future agriculture.
