January snowstorm causes \7b in damages
Collapsed greenhouses, fish farm die-offs top list
January’s record snowfall is estimated to have caused around 7 billion won in damages.
The provincial government is continuing to receive damage reports from farms across the island as of Friday (February 5th). More than 2,600 cases have been registered, totalling over six-point-nine billion won.
Farms with greenhouses were the hardest hit, with some 25 cases tallying over four-point-nine billion won in damages. Fish farms also incurred losses from the heavy snow. Thirty-four cases have been reported so far, accounting for approximately 1 billion won in damages.
The province is also offering partial compensation to farmers depending on the type of damage they suffered. It is hoped this will help speed up the recovery process.
