Saga Prefecture: Special Forest Products Price Surge Countermeasure Support Program
Summary
This Saga Prefecture support program targets special forest product (tokuyou-rinsan-butsu) producers—such as shiitake mushrooms, bamboo shoots, and wasabi—to alleviate management burden caused by soaring raw material and energy prices. Eligible applicants include agricultural management entities, forestry operators, and agricultural corporations engaged in production and sales of special forest products within Saga Prefecture. Subsidy amounts and subsidy rates require confirmation through Saga Prefecture's official announcement materials, with direct support aimed at easing management burden. Applications typically require proof of production history and submission of management status reports. As a price surge countermeasure in recent years, timely consultation and confirmation of application deadlines are critical.
