Gokseong-gun Accepts Additional Applications for Farmers and Fishermen Public Interest Allowance Until the 26th

If You Missed Applying Early This Year, Don’t Miss This Chance~!

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] Gokseong-gun, Jeollanam-do announced on the 11th that it will accept additional applications for the Jeonnam-type Public Interest Allowance for Farmers and Fishermen (hereinafter referred to as ‘Farmer Allowance’) until the 26th.

The Farmer Allowance initially accepted applications from January 20 to March 6. However, due to restrictions on outdoor activities caused by the spread of COVID-19 and considering that this is the first year of implementing the system, it was judged that some farms may have missed the application. Therefore, additional applications are being accepted this time.

To apply, applicants must visit the local town or township office of their registered address by the 26th.

The county will review the submitted documents and pay the Farmer Allowance (600,000 KRW per person) to eligible applicants in July. Eligible applicants are business owners who have maintained their resident registration address in Gokseong-gun since before December 31, 2018, and have registered as operators of agricultural or fishery businesses. However, for agricultural or fishery businesses registered under joint management, the allowance will be paid to only one applicant.

A county official said, “Farmers and fishermen who missed applying for the public interest allowance should definitely apply during this additional application period. Since the Farmer Allowance will be paid in local currency, we hope it will greatly help the local economy, which has been depressed due to COVID-19.”
