Hamyang-gun, Apply for Additional Agricultural and Fishery Income Support Payments

Workplace Insurance Subscribers Also Eligible to Apply, Additional Registration at Eupmyeon Offices Until the 30th

Gyeongnam Hamyang County Office.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Hamyang-gun, Gyeongnam Province, will accept additional applications for the 2022 Gyeongsangnam-do Agricultural and Fishery Workers Allowance from the 19th to the 30th for those who have not yet received the allowance.

This additional payment is due to the relaxation of support requirements following a change in the Gyeongnam Province Agricultural and Fishery Workers Allowance guidelines, which previously excluded National Health Insurance workplace subscribers from eligibility, allowing workplace insurance subscribers to receive the allowance.

The additional applicants are those who have resided in Hamyang-gun since before January 1, 2021, are registered as operators or co-operators of agricultural, forestry, or fishery management entities engaged in agriculture, forestry, or fishery, and are National Health Insurance workplace subscribers. Those who missed applying in the first half of the year are also eligible.

However, even if applicants meet the qualifications, those with comprehensive income from non-agricultural activities exceeding 37 million KRW, violators of agricultural, forestry, and fishery-related laws, and those who have fraudulently received various subsidies such as direct payments are excluded from eligibility.

Qualified applicants wishing to apply should visit their local eup/myeon office by the 30th. After verification, selected recipients will be paid the Agricultural and Fishery Workers Allowance via a NongHyup prepaid card in early November.

Kim Seong-jin, Director of the Agricultural Technology Center, said, “We hope the Agricultural and Fishery Workers Allowance will not only provide practical help to agricultural and fishery workers but also contribute to revitalizing the local economy. We urge eligible farmers not to miss the application period.”
