Haman-gun Opens Applications for 'Agricultural and Fishery Workers Allowance Support Project'

Registered Farm and Fishery Business Owners and Co-Managers ... Eligible to Apply for 300,000 KRW Annually

Haman-gun, Gyeongnam Province announced that it will accept applications for the ‘Agricultural and Fishery Worker Allowance Support Project’ from the 4th to April 12.

Eligible recipients are heads of households and co-managers registered as agricultural and fishery business operators residing in Gyeongsangnam-do from January 1, 2023, until the application date. Co-managers must be registered as co-managers by the application date as spouses of the heads of households registered as agricultural workers other than the head of the agricultural and fishery business operator.

However, those with a comprehensive income other than agriculture and fishery of 37 million KRW or more in 2022, those subject to fraudulent receipt of subsidies such as direct payments, and those who have the same resident registration address as recipients of the agricultural and fishery worker allowance but have separated households are excluded from the payment.

Last year, the county paid 3.3 billion KRW to 11,057 people, and this year, it has budgeted a total of 3.4 billion KRW targeting about 11,300 farming households, of which 2 billion KRW (60%) will be supported by the county government.

The payment amount is 300,000 KRW per year for agricultural households registered as agricultural and fishery business operators, and 600,000 KRW per year for those registered as co-managers, which will be received as points on the NongHyup Chaum Card.

Once applications are received, the county plans to review eligibility requirements in April and May, finalize recipients through the Agricultural and Fishery Worker Allowance Deliberation Committee, and pay the allowance in July.

A county official said, “We will make every effort to promote the project to ensure that no eligible farming households are omitted,” and added, “We strongly urge eligible households to apply within the deadline to avoid missing out on benefits.”

Applicants can visit their local eup/myeon office or apply through the Bojogeum24 website.
