Gokseong-gun Opens Applications for Women Farmers' Happiness Voucher

[Gokseong=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] Gokseong-gun, Jeonnam announced that it will accept applications for the 2021 Women Farmers Happiness Voucher service from the 4th of this month until the 26th of next month.

The Women Farmers Happiness Voucher support project provides cultural activity subsidies to women farmers in rural fishing villages where cultural conditions are relatively poor. It started in Jeonnam in 2017 and has gained great popularity among local residents.

This year's application period is about one month earlier than last year. This is to confirm the eligible recipients early and provide vouchers so that the usage period can be more generous.

The eligible recipients are women farmers aged 20 to 75 who have had an address in the region for more than one year (as of January 1, 2021) and are actually engaged in farming.

If selected, recipients will receive a voucher card with an annual limit of 200,000 KRW (with a 20,000 KRW self-payment). Gokseong-gun plans to support a total of 3,000 people with the Happiness Voucher this year.

However, those who have business registration or full-time jobs, children of farmers currently enrolled in high school, university, or graduate school, those eligible for the Munhwa Nuri Card support, and those whose non-agricultural income in the year before the project implementation exceeds 37 million KRW are excluded from support.
