Youth successor farmers selected from those aged 18 to under 40 and with less than three years of independent farming experience receive differentiated farming settlement support funds ranging from 900,000 to 1,100,000 KRW per month for up to three years, depending on their farming experience.

This year, the scale of youth successor farmers in Jangseong-gun is 31, and a total of 117 have been selected since 2018.

The meeting was organized to ensure the stable farming settlement of youth successor farmers. First, an on-site support team composed of professional farmers such as agricultural masters and leading farms shared various experiences, including the transfer of agricultural techniques by crop, methods to secure sales channels for agricultural products, and distribution.

After the meeting, the on-site support team plans to visit the farms of young farmers directly for a week to assess the current farming status and help resolve difficulties.

County Governor Kim Han-jong said, “I hope youth successor farmers grow into a strong pillar of Jangseong, a first-class agricultural city,” and added, “The county will spare no support.”
