[Muan=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Oh Hwan-joo] Deputy Speaker Lim Dong-hyun of the Muan County Council urged the expansion of the agricultural product price stabilization fund and diversification of supported items through a 5-minute free speech at the 1st plenary session of the 2nd regular meeting of the 283rd session.


Deputy Speaker Lim Dong-hyun stated, "More careful consideration is needed regarding the agricultural characteristics of Muan County, a mixed urban-rural city," and added, "Due to climate change and wind and flood damage, price fluctuations are severe, so sweet potatoes, cabbage, and rice, which represent Muan, should be temporarily added to the target crops and then expanded to other crops."


He continued, "For the agricultural product price stabilization fund to be properly operated, more research and review must follow regarding stable funding, criteria for compensation items and scope for damage occurrence, and anticipated issues in actual operation," emphasizing and proposing that the council and the executive branch work together to solve this issue.


Finally, Deputy Speaker Lim concluded his remarks by emphasizing, "Agriculture is at the center of the 4th Industrial Revolution and a future growth industry, and Muan's future depends on the vitality of agriculture," urging, "I call for sufficient financial support so that Muan County can become a leader in future agriculture."
