Expectations for Protecting Farmers' Precious Lives and Property

Mujugun Supports Attachment of Lighting Devices on Agricultural Machinery View original image


[Muju=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Hanho] Muju County announced on the 24th that it will promote a support project for attaching lighting devices to agricultural machinery this year.


The purpose is to prevent safety accidents caused by agricultural machinery driving on roads in advance and to protect the precious lives and property of farmers.


In the case of power tillers and tractors, there is a high risk of safety accidents such as collisions with cars because they carry agricultural products on trailers or drive at night and in rainy weather at slow speeds and are not easily identifiable.


Muju County attached lighting devices to 100 units last year, and this year secured a project budget of 9 million won to provide free attachment support to farms owning power tillers and tractors without lighting devices.


The support price for lighting devices is 100,000 won per unit, and a total of 90 units will be supported by selecting recipients.


Applications will be accepted at the towns and townships until the 28th of this month, and the project will be promoted by the Agricultural Technology Center.


Muju County plans to accept additional applications and promote the project if there are many farmers wishing to participate even after the support for attaching lighting devices to agricultural machinery is completed.
