This year, a total of 5 billion KRW in public interest allowances has been allocated to 8,349 people, including 8,094 farmers, 250 fishermen, and 5 foresters.

The recipients must have continuously resided in Jeollanam-do since before January 1, 2021, and be the head of a farming, fishing, or forestry business registered as an agricultural, fishery, or forestry operator.

Eligible households can visit their local agricultural cooperative with an ID card from the 18th until the 20th of next month. Additionally, for farmers, livestock farmers, and foresters who missed the application period and were excluded from the payment list, additional applications will be accepted at the town and township offices of their address from the 14th to the 22nd.

Meanwhile, Gangjin-gun invested 4.6 billion KRW of its own budget this year to provide rice management stabilization funds to 6,007 rice farming households and supported 6245 households with 950 million KRW for purchasing soil for rice seedling trays.
