Buyeo County Selected for "Rural Agreement" Project, Secures 37.5 Billion Won in Funding

Improving Residential Infrastructure and Expanding Living Services in Buyeo-eup, Guyang-myeon, and More

On May 14, Buyeo County in South Chungcheong Province announced that it had been selected for the "2025 Rural Agreement Public Contest Project" organized by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, securing a project budget of 37.5 billion won.

The county plans to use the secured funds to actively improve residential infrastructure and expand living services in rural areas.

The project will target the southeastern revitalization areas, including Buyeo-eup, Guyang-myeon, Chunghwa-myeon, Yanghwa-myeon, Imcheon-myeon, Jangam-myeon, Sedo-myeon, Chochon-myeon, and Seokseong-myeon, and will be implemented annually over five years from 2026 to 2030.

The "Rural Agreement" is a government policy that systematically and integratively promotes related projects by matching national and local funds according to rural spatial plans established by local governments. Its aim is to improve residential conditions and boost economic vitality.

The county is also expected to gain further momentum in project implementation, as it has already been designated as a pilot district for rural spatial restructuring and revitalization projects.

Park Junghyun, the county governor, stated, "By improving residential infrastructure and expanding living services in rural areas, we will invigorate the local economy and substantially enhance the quality of life for residents," adding, "We will do our utmost to ensure the successful implementation of the project."

Meanwhile, in addition to this Rural Agreement project, Buyeo County is actively pursuing various rural development projects, including the Rural Central Area Revitalization Project (Hongsan-myeon), Basic Living Base Creation Project (Oesan, Naesan, Oksan), Rural Space Maintenance Project (Eunsan-myeon), and Housing Complex Creation Project (Guyang-myeon).
