[Jangseong=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Jo Hangyu] Jangseong-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Yoo Doo-seok) announced on the 9th that it won the Excellence Award in the 'Jeollanam-do Agricultural Administration Comprehensive Evaluation.'

The county received this award at the 25th Farmers' Day event held at the Kim Dae-jung Auditorium in the Jeonnam Provincial Office on the same day.

This year, the evaluation covered seven fields and 35 items, including ▲ agricultural policy ▲ eco-friendly agriculture ▲ production of food and horticultural crops ▲ expansion of agricultural product distribution channels and fostering of the agro-food industry ▲ environmentally friendly livestock promotion ▲ animal quarantine and strengthening of livestock hygiene, assessing the overall agricultural administration of local governments.

The county is promoting large-scale projects such as expanding the food plan initiative and the Rural New Vitality Plus Project for tourism development of Chukryeongsan Forest, as well as actively engaging in fostering young startup farmers, selection for national and provincial government-funded projects, increasing direct transactions and e-commerce of agricultural products, and developing its own policies.

These continuous efforts to increase farmers' income have led to high evaluations.

Governor Yoo Doo-seok said, “The award resulted from efficient reorganization of the agricultural administration organization and prompt direction setting and implementation aimed at increasing farm household income. We will continue to establish a foundation for prosperous rural communities by realizing progressive agricultural administration that considers regional characteristics.”
