Damyang-gun Supplies 'Eco-Friendly Agricultural Products Packages for Pregnant Women' to Seoul City

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yukbong] Damyang-gun, Jeonnam Province (Governor Choi Hyungsik) announced on the 6th that it has been selected as a supply production area for the Seoul Metropolitan Government's Eco-friendly Agricultural Products Package Support Project for Pregnant Women, and will supply eco-friendly agricultural product packages to 4,275 pregnant women in 7 districts of Seoul starting this month.

This project is a pilot program promoted by the Seoul Metropolitan Government and its 25 districts to provide healthy food to pregnant women and stable sales channels to farmers. It supplies eco-friendly agricultural product packages to 18,230 pregnant women residing in Seoul.

The county and Damyang Nonghyup proposed to Seoul thorough hygiene and safety of food, a reliable distribution structure, reasonable price guarantees through direct transactions with producers, and especially early morning direct delivery from production areas to supply the freshest and most delicious products directly from producers, and were finally selected.

The county expects this to greatly contribute not only to securing a stable sales network for local eco-friendly agricultural products and processed foods but also to increasing farmers' income.

Governor Choi Hyungsik said, "Being selected as a supply production area for the Seoul Metropolitan Government's Eco-friendly Agricultural Products Package Support Project for Pregnant Women can be seen as a recognition by Seoul citizens of the excellent quality of Damyang's eco-friendly agricultural products," and added, "We will do our best to ensure that the supply of safe and fresh agricultural products is not disrupted."

Meanwhile, the county has been selected for various projects such as the "Seoul Metropolitan Government School Meal Eco-friendly Rice Supply," "Seoul Metropolitan Government Urban-Rural Win-Win Public Meal," and "Seoul Metropolitan Government Safe School Meal Project from GMOs," supplying the county's eco-friendly agricultural products and processed foods through local agricultural cooperatives.
