[Agricultural, Fisheries, and Livestock Newspaper=Reporter Park Yu-shin] Now, rural areas are transforming beyond merely being spaces for producing food; they are becoming places of work for some, opportunities for others to build dreams of success, and spaces of life, work, and rest. The People's Sovereignty Government launched by President Lee Jae-myoung in June last year has declared a major shift in agricultural policy with the vision of "agriculture with the people, realizing hope in the countryside," driven by the people's expectations for the People's Sovereignty Government, and has designed various policy measures such as basic income for farmers and fishermen, and sun-lit income villages, with the first implementation scheduled for this year. In this context, this newspaper diagnoses life in the countryside as we enter the new year.
