Jung Hyunseop, Director of the Autonomous Administration Bureau, said, "I hope today's volunteer work will be of some help to farms facing difficulties due to rising labor costs and a shortage of workers during the busy farming season," and added, "I also hope that this year's good sweet persimmon harvest will contribute to increasing farmers' incomes."
