Ulju County Office.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Dongguk Lee] Ulju-gun, Ulsan City, will support export promotion expenses and incentives for agricultural exporters to expand agricultural product exports this year.

Ulju-gun plans to provide 218 million KRW for the agricultural product export promotion fund project, which supports logistics costs such as packaging and transportation of export agricultural products, 240 million KRW for the export incentive support project, and 32 million KRW for the export packaging support project to revitalize agricultural product exports and increase farm income.

The main export items are fresh agricultural products such as pears, persimmons, and aloe, as well as processed foods like pear juice and traditional liquor, which use fresh agricultural products as the main ingredients. The main export countries are the United States, Japan, and Southeast Asia.

An official from Ulju-gun said, "Last year, local farmers went through a difficult time due to the contraction of the export market caused by COVID-19 and poor crop conditions due to agricultural disasters. This year, we will help farmers regain vitality not only by recovering agricultural product exports through expanding export markets and revitalizing consumption but also by actively supporting the distribution sector of agricultural products."
