Jangseong-gun Signs Business Agreement with Korea Rural Community Corporation Jeonnam Headquarters

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Jo Hangyu] Jangseong-gun, Jeollanam-do announced on the 4th that it has signed a business agreement with the Jeonnam Regional Headquarters of the Korea Rural Community Corporation.

Through this agreement, the two organizations will mutually cooperate on ▲ master plans such as Jangseong-gun's regional development and rural revitalization plans ▲ regional capacity building ▲ operation of agricultural production infrastructure ▲ urban-rural win-win projects for regional agricultural revitalization.

In particular, they plan to jointly promote the 'Gwangju Area Local Food Direct Store Project,' which can be considered a core project for establishing a food plan.

The Korea Rural Community Corporation will cooperate by providing land and other support, while Jangseong-gun will actively collaborate in creating a food production base and the food plan project.

Yoo Doo-seok, the mayor of Jangseong-gun, stated, "This is an important agreement for improving the quality of life of farmers, revitalizing local food, and ultimately securing future food resources for Jangseong," adding, "We expect it to be a turning point for the development of agricultural policy in Jangseong-gun."

He continued, "We will do our best to establish this as an excellent cooperation model that realizes the social value of rural areas."

Meanwhile, in 2017, Jangseong-gun, with the cooperation of the Korea Rural Community Corporation, created a waterside trail at Jangseongho, a site owned by the corporation.

In 2018, the Yellow Suspension Bridge was opened, and in June of this year, the Golden Suspension Bridge was opened.

Currently, the Jangseongho waterside trail attracts an average of 10,000 visitors on Saturdays and Sundays, establishing itself as a representative tourist attraction of Jangseong.

Since the 1st of this month, the county has started a gift certificate exchange system and operates the Waterside Trail Market, linking the tourism demand of Jangseongho with the recovery of the local commercial district and the stabilization of farmers' income.
