Sancheong County Office.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Sancheong-gun, Gyeongnam, which has been promoting the payment of allowances to farmers and fishermen from this year, will extend the application deadline to the 31st of this month.

The farmers and fishermen allowance is a support project implemented from this year to compensate for the public functions and agricultural and fishery activities of farmers and fishermen.

Each farming household registered as a business owner and co-manager will receive 300,000 KRW (a total of 600,000 KRW).

This extension of the application deadline is to alleviate inconvenience by extending the allowance application period due to the need for processing the registration deadline of co-managers.

The eligibility criteria have also been partially changed. In the case of business owners, they must have been registered with an address in the province and as an agricultural or fishery management entity from January 1 of the year before the allowance application to February 28 of the allowance application year.

For co-managers, the residence period is the same as that of the business owner, but support is available if registered as a co-manager by the allowance application date. However, applicants in March cannot apply if their resident registration is not in the province.

Those with non-agricultural income of 37 million KRW or more from 2020 to 2021, violators of related laws, recipients of fraudulent subsidies, and those enrolled in workplace insurance are excluded from support.

Applications can be made at each eup/myeon office. The allowance will be paid via the NongHyup Chaum Card (points).
