Muju-gun Supports Farm Income Improvement with FarmMate

[Muju=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Han-ho] Interest in Muju-gun's 'Farm Mate' activities is growing.

According to Muju-gun on the 23rd, the 'Farm Mate' project is being promoted with the purpose of not only cultivating experts in specialized agricultural products but also quickly listening to vivid stories from the agricultural field and reflecting them in policies.

Farm Mate, which combines the intentions of administration and farmers, consists of 5 teams and 27 members in the fields of apples, grapes (Shine Muscat), Cheonma, peaches, and tomatoes. Since March, they have been traveling through agricultural sites in 6 towns and townships, sharing agricultural technology and information, and assisting in projects aimed at increasing income and rural development.

They are also receiving positive responses by helping with seasonal farm work.

Through Farm Mate, Muju-gun is gaining essential momentum to solve farmers' difficulties and enhance the capabilities of new rural development officials.

Farmer Jeong (74 years old, Muju-eup), participating in Farm Mate, said, "I am growing Shine Muscat grapes and have received a lot of help through Farm Mate activities," adding, "We will combine the agricultural knowledge of rural development officials and long farming experience to ensure that Muju-gun's specialized products receive evaluations worthy of their status."
