Hampyeong-gun's 'Cheonji Hanwoo Industrial Special Zone' Extended for 2 Years

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Yoon Jamin] Hampyeong's 'Cheonji Hanwoo Industrial Special Zone,' designated as the nation's first Hanwoo business special zone, will be extended for two more years until next year.

According to Hampyeong County on the 9th, the Hampyeong Cheonji Hanwoo Industrial Special Zone project, originally scheduled to end last year, has recently been approved by the government for a two-year extension until 2021.

With this extension, the county plans to newly promote three projects: ▲ Preservation of Hampyeong Cheonji Hanwoo bloodlines and production of excellent calves ▲ Development of leading Hanwoo breeding farms ▲ Expansion and fostering of eco-friendly forage production complexes.

Additionally, the county will focus all efforts on aggressive promotional marketing by expanding sales and distribution networks to metropolitan areas including Seoul and other large cities, as well as regularly operating direct transaction markets by region.

The county was designated as the nation's first Hanwoo industrial special zone in 2008.

Through this, it has promoted five projects: ▲ Development of superior breeding cow groups (excellent foundation cows) ▲ Branding as a premium product ▲ Strengthening the foundation for eco-friendly forage production ▲ Enhancing promotion and marketing ▲ Events and tourism development, nurturing Hampyeong Cheonji Hanwoo into a top-level premium livestock brand nationwide.

In particular, by operating the nation's first TMR (Total Mixed Ration) feed factory, it provides customized feed specialized for raising high-quality Hanwoo beef (selenium added: anti-aging, immune enhancement, anti-cancer effects), achieving a 90% rate of high-grade Hanwoo beef, surpassing the national average of 86%.

Furthermore, it has achieved results such as securing excellent Hanwoo improvement groups through bloodline preservation subsidies, obtaining HACCP integrated certification, and being selected as an excellent livestock product brand for 12 consecutive years by consumer civic groups.
