[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Oh Hwan-ju] Muan-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Kim San) announced on the 9th that it was selected as the target site for the Fisheries Resource Spawning Habitat Creation Contest Project hosted by the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries on the 7th.


With this contest selection, the county will invest a total project cost of 4 billion KRW (including 2 billion KRW of national funds) over five years starting next year to promote an octopus resource recovery project in the Tando Bay area.


Through this project, it is expected to revitalize the local economy as well as increase fishermen's income by creating a mudflat spawning ground for mother octopuses and improving the habitat environment.



A county official said, "Taking this contest project as an opportunity, we will create a habitat suitable for the octopus ecology to establish an environment where Muan octopus, famous nationwide, can be sustainably produced."
