[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Go Dallyeong] Jangsu-gun announced on the 6th that the water storage rate of agricultural reservoirs in the area exceeds 90%, about 10% higher than the average year, and it is expected that there will be no disruption in the supply of agricultural water during the farming season.


However, since the rainfall from May to June is expected to be generally similar to or less than the average year, proactive water management is necessary to prepare for the farming season when the water storage rate rapidly decreases due to increased usage during rice planting season.


To this end, Jangsu-gun is investing 2.4 billion KRW to install and reinforce hydraulic facilities such as reservoirs, pumping stations, and water supply and drainage channels.



A Jangsu-gun official said, “Although it is expected that there will be no difficulties in water supply for the time being, we will promptly complete projects to prepare for drought and make every effort to ensure stable water supply.”
