Sinan County in South Jeolla Province announced that on December 2, about 30 trainees from the 8th session of the Jeollanam-do Agricultural and Fishing Village Experience Program visited the Sinan County Agricultural Product Processing Center, together with the Jeollanam-do Agricultural and Fishing Village Comprehensive Support Seoul Center.

This program is a practice-oriented educational initiative designed to help prospective returnees to farming and fishing villages understand the actual process of starting a processing business and experience its potential by directly touring processing facilities and participating in manufacturing practice.

In particular, the hands-on activity of making regionally specialized salt bread using local agricultural products and premium sun-dried salt received an enthusiastic response from the trainees. Participants learned the production process of processed products based on clean specialty ingredients by experiencing the kneading, shaping, and baking steps themselves.

Additionally, a variety of programs were offered, including introductions to agricultural and fishing village policies, guidance on settlement support systems, and consultations on starting a business or farming. These sessions helped participants develop a concrete roadmap for entrepreneurship after settling in Sinan.

A county official stated, "We explained the operational system of the Agricultural Product Processing Center and the process of developing regionally specialized products. We will support returnees to farming and fishing villages in gaining hands-on experience in producing processed products and starting businesses," adding, "We will continue to expand programs that provide practical assistance for stable rural settlement."
