Hwaseong City is implementing various programs to modernize and strengthen its local agricultural sector. The city has identified kiwi cultivation as a strategic crop to address climate change, providing farmers with technical training, irrigation facilities, and a pilot pollen bank. To bolster demand, officials are working to integrate local kiwi into school meal supplies through recipe training for nutrition teachers.

In addition to specific crop promotion, the city is expanding its technological capabilities through a 2026 fruit smart farm education program.
