Wanju-gun Begins Purchase of Public Reserve Dried Rice

[Wanju=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Han-ho] Wanju County announced on the 15th that it has started purchasing a total of 1,988 tons of public reserve dried rice from rice farming households.

This year, the variety of public reserve rice purchased by Wanju County is Sindongjin, and since last year, all purchases have been made in large bags (800 kg ton bags) units.

They purchased 1,024 tons of paddy rice by the 11th.

The dried rice is planned to be purchased at designated locations until the 23rd of this month.

The purchase schedule may change depending on weather conditions, so inquiries can be made in advance to the County Agricultural Technology Center.

Considering the farming cost burden of shipping farmers, an interim payment of 30,000 KRW per 40 kg bag will be paid immediately after purchase, and the final settlement will be completed by the end of December after the purchase price is confirmed.

Meanwhile, with the start of dried rice purchases, County Governor Park Seong-il visited the Iseo Nonghyup Sanji Distribution Center on the 12th to inspect the purchase site and encourage the officials.
