The article highlights the significant growth in South Korea's agri-food exports, reaching an all-time high of $4.153 billion in the first half of the year, a 15.4% increase from the previous year. This growth marks the highest rate since 2011. The surge is largely due to the export of fresh agricultural products like ginseng, kimchi, and citron tea, which have seen substantial increases due to the global trend towards health food. Processed food exports also saw a significant rise, with notable growth in noodles, confectionery, beverages, sauces, and processed rice food.

The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs is planning to continue this growth by implementing a strategy to expand exports tailored to each country's COVID-19 situation in the second half of the year.
