Employees of Ancheon Agricultural Cooperatives in Jinan-gun, Jeollabuk-do, are purchasing freshly harvested and dried fresh red peppers at the Ancheon Agricultural Cooperative Square. The purchase price this year is 30-40% lower than last year, ranging from 9,000 to 11,000 won for 600g. The peppers are harvested from the clean Jinan highland field, dried for about three days in a dryer, and stored in large warehouses before being sold wholesale or retail.
