Hosted by Dak Nong Newspaper, this conference was attended by nearly 300 delegates representing 19 Party press agencies in the Central Highlands and 24 guest press agencies nationwide.

The workshop is considered a large-scale journalism activity, through which reporters and journalists exchange, draw experiences, and discuss ways to improve their propaganda skills, especially in the fields of agriculture - farmers - rural areas.

In particular, through the forum, journalists and press agencies reflect objective realities and propose solutions for Party committees and authorities at all levels to issue policies and guidelines in the agricultural sector.

Recently, in the publications of Party newspapers in the region, thousands of articles and press works have been published mentioning the role and position of farmers in the 4.0 scientific and technological revolution.

The press not only accompanies but also becomes a scientific document and handbook to support farmers in developing economic models, especially applying high technology in production and cultivation.

The workshop also pointed out some limitations in the propaganda work of the press in general and propaganda about farmers in particular. That is, many news, articles and works are still dry, unconvincing and not close to reality. There are not many high-quality columns and topics about farmers, and the forms of propaganda are not diverse.

To overcome these limitations, delegates also spent time discussing enthusiastically, proposing solutions to bring propaganda work in general, and propaganda on agriculture, farmers and rural areas in particular, to meet the requirements of objective reality.
