Encouraging Voluntary Management by Livestock Farms to Reduce Odor Emissions

[Boseong=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Park Cheon-seok] Boseong-gun, Jeollanam-do announced on the 14th that it will produce and distribute a promotional booklet titled “Livestock Manure Discharge Business Operation and Management Compliance Guidelines,” which contains measures for livestock farms to self-inspect and manage their business sites in response to increasing complaints about livestock odor.

The booklet includes detailed explanations of relevant laws that livestock farms may easily overlook while operating their business sites, standards for managing livestock barns and composting facilities, and photos of violation cases within the jurisdiction, making it easy for anyone to understand.

Boseong-gun plans not only to publish the promotional booklet but also to have responsible public officials visit livestock farms directly to explain and guide them on the contents.

Livestock farmers who received the promotional booklet responded positively, saying, “Through the photos, we can directly see violation cases and learn from others’ mistakes, and it seems like a practical guide that will help in operating our business sites.”

Meanwhile, to reduce livestock odor, Boseong-gun is making efforts such as △support projects for installing odor prevention facilities, △support projects for modernizing old barns and sealing composting facilities, △support projects for sealed pigsties, △operation of a public-private odor management council, and △odor management promotional activities using SNS with livestock farmers. Since 2021, it has also planned to organize and operate a dedicated odor patrol team.
