Sokcho City to Support Wildlife Damage Prevention and Compensation...Up to 5 Million Won Per Farm
Sokcho City Launches Initiatives to Prevent and Compensate for Wildlife Damage
Up to 60% Support for Installation of Prevention Facilities, Compensation Covers Up to 80% of Damage
Sokcho City in Gangwon Province is launching initiatives to prevent damage caused by wild animals and to support farms that have suffered such damage.
The city plans to implement projects to support the installation of damage prevention facilities and to operate wildlife damage control teams. These efforts aim to systematically address crop losses caused by wild animals and to assist affected farms and citizens.
The damage prevention facility support project is open to farmers and others who need to install protective facilities to prevent wildlife damage, and will run until November 30 of this year. The city will provide up to 60% of the installation costs, with a maximum support amount of 2 million won per farm.
In addition, wildlife damage control teams will be deployed mainly in rural areas to minimize damage caused by harmful wild animals such as wild boars and water deer.
Furthermore, if crops or property are damaged by wild animals, residents can report the incident to the Sokcho City Eco-friendly Division. After on-site verification, compensation of up to 5 million won will be provided by October 30, covering up to 80% of the assessed damage.
However, support will be excluded in cases where crops or other items are cultivated in areas where farming is prohibited, or where damage occurred after illegally entering restricted mountain access zones.
