Jangan-gu Resumes Distribution of EM Fermentation Liquid from March 29

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Seo Dong-young] Jangan-gu in Suwon will resume distribution of eco-friendly beneficial microorganism EM fermentation liquid starting March 29, which had been suspended due to COVID-19.

Currently, EM complex machines capable of culturing and distributing EM are installed and operating at one machine each in three districts within the ward (Pajang-dong, Jowon 2-dong, and Yeonmu-dong) including Jangan-gu Office. Prior to the suspension of EM fermentation liquid distribution due to COVID-19, the ward office distributed the product once a week (Wednesdays), while each district conducted distribution twice a month (second and fourth Wednesdays).

However, on March 29, the first day of resumed distribution, residents will be able to receive EM fermentation liquid not only at the ward office but also at district administrative welfare centers.

The district urged residents to comply with infectious disease prevention guidelines, including wearing masks and maintaining social distancing of at least 1 meter to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

A district official stated, "Since the EM complex machines are operated autonomously for the convenience of residents, we ask that many people use them by receiving an appropriate amount (1 liter per person per visit). We hope that many residents practicing eco-friendly lifestyles using EM fermentation liquid in their daily lives will increase, so that our district can become an environmentally friendly city as well as protect the environment."
