Jangseong-gun, Early Payment of Farmers and Fishermen Public Interest Allowance... Regional Economy 'Vitality'

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Oh Gil-su] Jangseong-gun, Jeollanam-do, is revitalizing the local economy with the early payment of the Farmers and Fishermen Public Interest Allowance through the Jangseong Love Gift Certificate.

According to Jangseong-gun on the 29th, the county decided to distribute the entire 4.5 billion KRW Farmers and Fishermen Public Interest Allowance in Jangseong Love Gift Certificates to revive the local economy, which has been depressed due to COVID-19, and began payments on the 20th of this month.

Originally, the Farmers and Fishermen Public Interest Allowance was planned to be paid twice, in May and October. However, Jangseong-gun changed its policy to pay the full amount this month to support farmers and local small business owners struggling due to the impact of COVID-19.

Furthermore, the county simplified the payment process, distributed payment windows, and directly distributed by village to ensure quick payment, receiving favorable reviews from local farmers preparing for the busy farming season.

Yoo Doo-seok, the mayor of Jangseong-gun, said, “The early payment of the Farmers and Fishermen Public Interest Allowance to overcome COVID-19 is helping stabilize farmers' livelihoods and revitalize the local economy,” adding, “We hope it will bring new vitality to the depressed agriculture and public livelihood.”

Meanwhile, farmers who have not applied for the Farmers and Fishermen Public Interest Allowance can visit the eup/myeon administrative welfare centers by the 29th.
