Dasarang has engaged in Hamcho business for the past 10 years and plans to establish agricultural cooperatives to meet increasing demand by organically cultivating Hamcho The company can contribute to advancing regional economic development by facilitating regional specialties and improving public health based on agricultural cooperatives in which residents of Hamcho cultivation areas take part and establish plants to specialize in processing Hamcho.

Various benefits of consuming Hamcho have become widely known in the food industry and academia, but few ordinary citizens know about them. For this reason, there is no problem in meeting consumer demand at the moment, but there might in the future be supply shortages as the benefits of Hamcho become more widely known

Some people have excessively collected young Hamcho in their habitats, so it is in danger of becoming extinct in certain areas. In this regard, it is necessary to protect mudflats, as was done in Germany and the Netherlands

Dasarang cultivated Hamcho on a trial basis by using waste salt fields while examining the ecological environment of Hamcho. It calculated earning by unit cultivation and confirmed that it can lead to a source of higher income while promoting the cultivation of Hamcho (It recently reported on the Hamcho cultivation method, the crops and earnings by unit area and marketability at the request of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry)

Since 1997, Chinese salt has been imported en masse resulting in a growing number of suspended domestic salt fields, and they presently cover as many as 3.3 million square meters.The cultivation of Hamcho, which grows well in waste salt fields is expected to make a great contribution to facilitating the lagging regional economy based on the effective use of the country’s land-space

As a growing number of people favor agricultural products produced by organic agricultural methods, many local governments are investing heavily in bio industries based on regional specialties, so it is necessary for specialized companies to have close relationships with local governments in an effort to develop and facilitate excellent quality regional specialties.

In this regard, Dasarang has taught organic agricultural cultivation technologies to regional residents wanting to cultivate Hamcho and pushed for establishing agricultural cooperatives. It is also pursuing to establish a factory specialized in processing Hamcho on the strength of advanced facilities with support from Jeollanam-do.
