Tridge summary

The article highlights the impact of the rainy season on the cultivation of cabbages and radishes in the highlands of Gangwon-do, South Korea. Heavy rainfall since the end of last month has led to poor growth and quality issues in these vegetables, with cabbages suffering from soft rot and viruses, and radishes showing low ratios with products. The situation is further complicated by high temperatures, delays in production, and the unavailability of seasonal workers due to COVID-19. As a result, the wholesale price of cabbages is expected to reach between 13,000 and 14,000 won per 10kg, compared to last year's prices. Radish quality has also declined, and there are challenges in sowing the second stage in semi-highland areas. The area for radish shipment during the Chuseok peak season has increased by 3.6%, but the quality of this year's radish is not as good as average due to bacterial disease and high temperature. The total production of highland radish is projected to be 232,000 tons, marking a 6.4% decrease from the previous year.

It is showing the 12,000 won line in the circle. In the case of radish, the damage caused by rain is not great, ...
