Jeonbuk Provincial Government Office building.

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Gominhyeong] Jeonbuk Province will accept applications for the 2020 Minimum Price Guarantee System for Agricultural Products (hereinafter referred to as the ‘Major Agricultural Products Price Stabilization Support Project’) for dried red chili peppers, open-field potatoes, ginger, and green onions until the 19th of next month at eup/myeon/dong offices and local agricultural cooperatives.

The deadline was extended by three weeks from the end of this month to reflect the social distancing campaign due to COVID-19 and the farming season in rural areas, as a measure to prevent the omission of eligible applicants.

Farmers applying for the project must sign a shipment contract with the city/county integrated marketing organization or local agricultural cooperative and submit the application form to the eup/myeon/dong office or local agricultural cooperative in the location of their farmland.

An official from the province stated, “We will work closely with each city and county to ensure thorough promotion of the project so that no farmers cultivating the eligible crops miss the application.”
