Briefing on support system for typhoon victims of agriculture, forestry and fisheries

A briefing session was held in Chiba City to inform local governments and agricultural cooperatives about the support system for agricultural, forestry and fisheries companies in Chiba Prefecture, which was heavily damaged by Typhoon No. 15.

As of the 4th of this month, damage to the agriculture, forestry and fisheries industry has been confirmed due to the collapse of agricultural houses in various locations in Chiba Prefecture due to the impact of Typhoon No. 15.

Under these circumstances, on the 8th, the country held a briefing session in Chiba City on the support system for agricultural, forestry and fishery industry, and about 300 people attended, including municipalities and agricultural cooperatives in charge of receiving support applications and consultations.

At the briefing session, personnel such as the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries can use subsidies to reduce the cost of rebuilding a broken agricultural house, and train employees who have lost their working place due to broken facilities to other agricultural corporations. I explained that there is a system that allows you to receive subsidies if you dispatch as.

Participants from local governments and agricultural cooperatives were asking questions about the scope of support and application schedules.

A staff member in Serizawa, Chiba Prefecture said, “Many agricultural houses were damaged in the town. I would like to support farmers by using the grant system I heard today.”

Future briefings will be held in Asahi City and Tateyama City in Chiba Prefecture.
