[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seo Young-seo] Jangheung-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Jeong Jong-sun) announced on the 23rd that it has paid 19.4 billion KRW in basic public interest direct payments, which are integrated payments for rice, field, and disadvantaged area direct payments, for the first time this year to 7,060 farming households.


The basic public interest direct payments paid this time are divided into small-scale direct payments, which provide a fixed amount of 1.2 million KRW to farms cultivating between 0.1 ha and 0.5 ha, and area direct payments, which are paid differentially according to the area in sections.



Governor Jeong Jong-sun said, “With this direct payment, I hope to alleviate the difficulties of farmers whose harvests have decreased due to the long rainy season and typhoons this year, and furthermore, to contribute even a little to the local economy, which has been depressed due to COVID-19.”
