Jangseong-gun Launches 600 Million Won 'Custom Grass Fertilizer Support Project'

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Oh Gilsu] Jangseong-gun, Jeollanam-do announced on the 14th that it will actively promote the "Customized Fertilizer Support Project for Turf," a pledge project of the 7th local government, to strengthen the foundation for producing premium turf.

The "Customized Fertilizer Support Project for Turf" is a project that supports fertilizers to improve soil fertility weakened by continuous turf cultivation and to produce high-quality turf. Turf fertilizer not only promotes turf growth by supporting the habitation of beneficial microorganisms but also neutralizes the soil.

The county has secured a budget of 600 million KRW and plans to provide 100,000 bags of customized fertilizer to about 1,100 turf farms.

The fertilizer will be proportionally supported according to the scale of turf cultivation on each farm, and the Jangseong-gun Forestry Cooperative has been selected as the fertilizer supply agency. The county plans to complete fertilizer supply to turf farms by the end of this month.

Yoo Doo-seok, the governor of Jangseong-gun, said, "We will continue to provide administrative support to establish a foundation for high-quality turf cultivation and maintain the reputation of 'Premium Jangseong Turf.'"

Meanwhile, Jangseong-gun is the largest turf production area in the country, producing 62% of the nation's turf. Currently, turf is cultivated on 1,352 hectares by 1,339 farms in the region.

So far, Jangseong-gun has established the "Turf Forest Product Distribution Center" to create a systematic turf distribution system and has contributed to reducing labor and increasing income for turf farms through projects such as the "Turf Ton Bag Support Project" and the "Turf Production Equipment Support Project," producing premium turf of the highest quality nationwide through various fostering policies.
