[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Sancheong-gun, Gyeongnam is accelerating the development of local food that not only supports public meals but also allows local residents to eat with confidence.

On the 14th, the county announced that it will establish a 'Food Division' within the Sancheong-gun Agricultural Technology Center and promote the establishment of the Sancheong-gun Food Plan and the construction of an integrated food support center.

The Food Division was created to respond to the government's national agenda of revitalizing local food, establishing food plans, and the Gyeongnam Province's 2030 food innovation strategy establishment plan.

In particular, it aims to actively secure national and provincial budgets and handle tasks related to the integrated and expanded food policies as a national agenda.

The newly established Food Division will carry out tasks such as ▲establishing regional food plans and implementing detailed plans ▲enacting basic food ordinances and operating public-private cooperation networks ▲installing and operating an integrated food support center ▲promoting public meal-related projects ▲operating three local food direct transaction markets ▲promoting local food development projects ▲participating in agricultural and food expos and exhibitions ▲managing agricultural product safety (GAP, origin inspection).

A county official said, “We will not only establish the vision and strategy for the Sancheong-gun Food Plan but also build a sustainable virtuous cycle system for food based on this, linked with our county’s local food policy direction. Through the integrated food support center, we will strive to supply excellent and safe agricultural products produced in the region to the public sector at reasonable prices.”
