Haenam County (Mayor Myeong Myeong-gwan) is urging farmers to adhere to the appropriate sowing times and to thoroughly select and disinfect seed garlic in order to produce high-quality garlic. The growth, yield, and quality of garlic are greatly affected by the sowing time, so it is important to sow at the right time.

Along with sowing at the right time, thorough preparation in advance is also necessary. First, healthy seed garlic must be selected.
