Applications are open to anyone engaged in agriculture, forestry, or fisheries within the region, and applicants must submit the application form and required documents to the resident center of the town, township, or neighborhood where the preventive facility will be installed by March 15.

However, those who have already received support for preventive facility costs through the Ministry of Agriculture's FTA fund are excluded from this support.

A city official stated, "Recently, wild animals have been coming down to farms and causing damage frequently," adding, "We will promptly promote support for preventive facilities before the harvest season begins to help farmers maintain stable cultivation activities."
