establishment of cooperatives, small- and medium-sized enterprises from groups
of household businesses.

improve and fine-tune production and operation systems. Furthermore,
conferences and workshops to share experience between units will be arranged to
disseminate tasks in the implementation of the OCOP programme in association
with the one on building new-style rural areas.
