Jeonnam Province announced that five cities and counties-Yeosu, Suncheon, Naju, Haenam, and Muan-were selected for the '2026 Livestock Odor Improvement Project' organized by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, securing a total project budget of 11.7 billion won. This is the largest amount of funding awarded nationwide.

The Livestock Odor Improvement Project is designed to support facilities and equipment for livestock manure treatment, odor reduction, and crop-livestock circulation. Since 2021, it has been operated as a nationwide competitive program, providing up to 3 billion won per city or county.

Yeosu and Suncheon will each receive 2.9 billion won, Haenam will receive 2.3 billion won, Muan will receive 2 billion won, and Naju will receive 1.6 billion won in project funding.

Gurye and Hampyeong have been selected as preliminary project areas and will be eligible for support if the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs secures additional funding in the future.

This funding is expected to significantly improve manure treatment facilities and reduce livestock odor for local farmers.

Kim Seongjin, Director of Livestock Policy at Jeonnam Province, stated, "Through this project, we will expand the foundation for livestock manure treatment, odor reduction, and resource circulation to create a cleaner and more sustainable livestock environment. We will continue to do our best to secure national funding in the future."
