According to the county on October 30, the upcoming Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries Census is a nationwide, full-scale survey conducted every five years to assess the size, structure, distribution, and management types of all agricultural, forestry, and fishery households. The statistical data collected through this survey will serve as a foundational resource for the formulation of national and local agricultural and fisheries policies.

The reference date for the survey is December 1, 2025, and a total of 133 items will be investigated (58 for agricultural and forestry households, 30 for marine fisheries, 30 for inland fisheries, and 15 for administrative villages).

Survey personnel will be recruited until December 12, with 16 survey managers and 102 surveyors participating. Those selected will undergo preliminary training before taking part in the field survey.

Any responsible and diligent resident of Gochang County aged 18 or older is eligible to apply.
