On August 12, 2026, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs (농림축산식품부) said that, to improve access for users of the Agri-food Voucher (농식품 바우처), it had expanded delivery of the 'Agri-food Voucher package' nationwide since late July. Users can order a package of agricultural and livestock products made up of items such as vegetables, fruit and meat from an online mall with their voucher and have it delivered to their home. The Agri-food Voucher provides a set monthly amount to households on livelihood benefits that include a pregnant woman, an infant or child, or a young person aged 34 or under, with support limits of 40,000 won a month for a 1-person household, 100,000 won for a 4-person household, and 187,000 won for households of 10 or more people.

Background — why this change

Last year's full implementation of the Agri-food Voucher showed that users' satisfaction with their diet rose from 2.87 to 3.68 out of 5 and that the gap in the healthy eating index narrowed by 19.9%. However, it was pointed out that in island and mountainous areas and elsewhere, some users had difficulty using the voucher because there were few places nearby that accepted it. In response, from November last year through January this year the ministry ran a pilot package project covering about 7,800 user households in 14 cities and counties in Jeonbuk, and a relatively high repurchase rate in areas with poor access to offline outlets confirmed the need to expand the project. An open call for package operators has been running since May, with the first operator selected in late July, and the ministry plans to keep increasing the number of operators so that products can be chosen from a variety of online malls.
