Analysts say that it reflects the increase in agricultural inflows by young people based on the global movement to realize smart agriculture and environmental protection and agricultural statistics surveys.

This is the first case in the agricultural machinery industry, and NFT, which will be issued this time, plans to distribute it free of charge through TYM's official Instagram event in the future.

Grand prize winner Kang Hyun-seok said, "I was inspired by the image of a bull running in the field to capture the dynamic and sporty design favored by young people on a tractor," adding, "I'm very happy to win the grand prize of TYM, Korea's leading agricultural machinery company."
