South Korea has seen a significant increase in the prices of major agricultural and livestock products, with consumer prices for agricultural products rising by 19.2% last month from the previous year. This increase is due to bad weather conditions and the spread of avian influenza, leading to a decrease in crop production and an increase in livestock product prices. The Ministry of Agriculture and Food is planning to manage the supply and demand by controlling the shipment of contracts and promoting discount events for domestic eggs.
