‘Daedongi’ and ‘Isaki’ to Be Linked... Daedong Partners with Rural Development Administration on AI Agent Collaboration

Combining Verified Agricultural Technology Information from the Rural Development Administration with Daedong’s Field-Focused AI Services
Strengthening Customized Farming Support for Farmers

Daedong AI Lab, the artificial intelligence (AI) specialist company of Daedong Group, announced on June 26 that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Rural Development Administration for the collaboration of public and private agricultural AI agents.

This agreement aims to connect the public agricultural technology information of the Rural Development Administration with Daedong AI Lab's field-focused AI farming assistant service, enabling farmers to access AI-powered agricultural services more easily and accurately.

At the center of this partnership are the Rural Development Administration’s agricultural AI agent ‘AI Isaki’ and Daedong Group’s private AI farming assistant ‘AI Daedongi.’ AI Isaki provides public agricultural knowledge services based on the Rural Development Administration’s verified agricultural technology information, while AI Daedongi offers field-specialized farming services through the Daedong Connect App, such as guidance on using agricultural machinery and consultations on cultivation and pest management.

The two sides plan to initially link AI Isaki’s agricultural technology information with AI Daedongi, so that when users ask farming-related questions to AI Daedongi, they receive both Daedong’s field-oriented services and the Rural Development Administration’s verified information. In addition, they will share key question statistics and customer feedback collected through AI Daedongi with the Rural Development Administration to continuously improve service quality.

Daedong AI Lab plans to build an open agricultural AI agent structure that can connect with various external AI services in the future, so that farmers can access the information they need at once and use it in actual farming decision-making. Daedong AI Lab is also expanding the service as a phone-based AI farming assistant to make it easy for elderly farmers who have difficulty using smartphones or apps. In the long term, the company intends to advance the AI farming assistant by linking it with autonomous agricultural machinery and agricultural robots—so-called physical AI—providing a comprehensive AI agricultural service that covers consulting, recordkeeping, analysis, and task execution.

Junki Choi, CEO of Daedong AI Lab, said, "The value of agricultural AI lies not in the technology itself, but in making it easy for farmers to use and benefit from it in the field. By combining highly reliable public information and Daedong’s field data, we will expand customized AI farming services for all farmers."
