Yeongdeok-gun Opens Applications for 2025 Farmers and Fishermen Allowance

Application for 2025 Farmer and Fisherman Allowance Begins
Mobile Applications Available Until the 23rd, In-person Applications at Eup/Myeon Offices from the 24th

Yeongdeok-gun, Gyeongbuk Province, is accepting applications for the 2025 Farmer and Fisherman Allowance from the 1st of this month until the 14th of next month.

Applications can be submitted via mobile (Gyeongbuk-do Moiso app) only until the 23rd, and from the 24th until the 14th of next month, applications can be made both through mobile and at the local eup/myeon offices of the applicant's address.

Using mobile is convenient as it does not require document preparation or visits to administrative offices. Applicants must be the head of a farm household who received direct payments last year, install the Gyeongbuk-do Moiso app, obtain a Gyeongbuk Resident ID, and then apply for the allowance.

Eligible applicants are heads of farm or fishery households who have registered their agricultural or fishery management information and are actively engaged in farming or fishing. They must have continuously resided in the province for at least one year prior to January 1 of the application year (2025).

Selected recipients must maintain their address and qualifications related to farm or fishery management until they receive the Farmer and Fisherman Allowance. The allowance of 600,000 KRW per person per year will be paid in a lump sum around May to June in the form of Yeongdeok Love Gift Certificates.

However, those with a comprehensive income of 37 million KRW or more outside of farming and fishing, those who have fraudulently received subsidies such as direct payments in the past five years (2020 to present), those who have been penalized (as of the sentencing date) for violating the Farmland Act, Mountainous Area Management Act, Livestock Epidemic Prevention Act, or Fisheries Act, and public officials or employees of public institutions are excluded from receiving the allowance.

County Governor Kim Gwang-yeol stated, “I hope the Farmer and Fisherman Allowance will provide some help to those who quietly engage in agriculture and fisheries, which are the foundation of the local community, despite difficult circumstances.”
