A South Korean civic group has sent twenty trucks to North Korea using a new delivery method to transport agricultural supplies north of Gaeseong. 
 
Ace Gyeongam, a civic group dedicated to North Korean aid, delivered 200 million won’s worth of agro-materials and seeds to a farm in Sariwon in North Hwanghae Province on Tuesday.
 
The aid was transported about 110 kilometers farther north than what the civic group has done in the past with its deliveries to Gaeseong.
 
This time when reaching the border city, South Korean truck drivers changed hands with North Korean drivers who then drove the trucks from Gaeseong to Sariwon.
 
After dropping off the supplies, the trucks returned to Gaeseong in the afternoon where South Korean drivers drove back home.
 
It is the first time the group has tried out this method of cross border land transport.
 
Officials of Ace Gyeongam who went to the North will return home Saturday after repairing 50 greenhouse structures in the city of Sariwon using the delivered greenhouse goods.
