Jangseong-gun Officially Launches Food Business Group... Establishing Food Plan

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Oh Gil-su] Jangseong-gun, Jeollanam-do announced on the 7th that the 'Jangseong-gun Food Project Group' for establishing a food plan has officially launched.

Jangseong-gun set a policy to operate the Food Project Group as an interim execution organization to prepare for the establishment of an integrated food support center in the form of a public corporation, and hired a total of five experts through cooperation with the Nonghyup (National Agricultural Cooperative Federation).

The head of the project group is Mr. Lee Gi-seon, who previously served as the head of the Nonghyup Jangseong-gun branch. During his tenure as branch head, Lee, who participated as a talent donor for the development of local agriculture, promoted the food plan together with the county.

The project group officially started its activities on the 2nd by benchmarking the local food revitalization case in Wanju-gun.

Going forward, it is expected to play a pivotal role in implementing the food plan by listening to voices from the field through communication with farmers, analyzing the current status of local agriculture, organizing farming households, and establishing a planned production system.

Yoo Doo-seok, the mayor of Jangseong-gun, said, "The Jangseong-gun Food Project Group will be the driving force behind the promotion of the food plan," and added, "We will complete the roadmap for the Jangseong food plan through governance built together with Jangseong-gun, Nonghyup, and local residents."
