Damyang-gun Promotes Organic Fertilizer Support Project for 'Natural Circulation Agriculture Development'

Applications until the 30th, flat-rate support of 1,300~1,600 KRW depending on non-subscription type

[Damyang=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] Damyang County in Jeonnam announced on the 12th that it is accepting applications for the ‘2022 Organic Fertilizer Support Project’ until the 30th, targeting local rice, horticulture, fruit, and special crop farms.

The supported fertilizers include three types of organic fertilizers (mixed organic cake fertilizer, mixed organic fertilizer, organic compound fertilizer) and two types of matured organic fertilizers (livestock manure compost, compost), with a fixed support amount of 1,300 to 1,600 KRW depending on the type.

Applicants must have farmland registered in the agricultural management information of the agricultural management entity, and application forms should be submitted to the town or township office where the farmland is located.

Through this organic fertilizer support project, the county aims to promote natural circulation agriculture and resolve issues related to livestock manure disposal, odor, and infringement of a pleasant residential environment caused by local livestock farms.

Additionally, to increase the utilization rate of livestock manure compost produced by local compost production companies, a penalty will be applied to farms that apply for livestock manure compost products produced outside the county under the county’s own subsidy project.

A county official said, “We hope for active participation from local farms to ensure a pleasant rural living environment through proper treatment of livestock manure and to promote the virtuous cycle of livestock manure,” adding, “We will do our best to promote so that no one misses out on fertilizer support due to failure to apply.”
