[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Nosik] Imsil County recently announced on the 28th that it signed a business agreement with the Imsil County branch of the Korea Recycling Association to collect abandoned waste agricultural machinery.

The business agreement ceremony was attended by Lee Kyungsoo, head of the Imsil County branch of the Korea Recycling Association, representatives of local recycling companies, Kim Jojung, director of the Agricultural Technology Center, and officials from the Agricultural Technology Center.

Through this agreement, the collection of abandoned waste agricultural machinery on farms and farmland is expected to enhance the clean image of Imsil, as well as greatly help alleviate inconveniences for residents and promote resource recycling.

The project will be promoted in cooperation with the Agriculture and Livestock Department and the Cleaning and Sanitation Department. A full survey of waste agricultural machinery by village will be conducted by June 19, followed by the full-scale collection of waste agricultural machinery from July 22 to July 30. Activities such as guidance to prevent illegal dumping will also be carried out concurrently.

The county urged village chiefs to take the lead in creating clean villages and asked owners of waste agricultural machinery to actively participate in the collection campaign.

The Imsil County branch of the Korea Recycling Association has agreed to actively participate in local resource recycling and environmental improvement campaigns and to continuously work together to create a clean and green Imsil.

Sim Min, the governor of Imsil County, said, “Through the business agreement with local recycling companies for the collection of agricultural machinery, we will collect abandoned waste agricultural machinery to enhance the clean image of Imsil. We will strive to make this an environmental improvement project that kills three birds with one stone by providing work to recycling companies and appropriate compensation to farmers.”
