The fall wild sheep pine tree trial concluded on October 5, reaching an all-time high first-class trial price of 1,366,600 won per kilogram, surpassing the record set in 2009. The price increase is attributed to a decrease in harvest due to poor crop conditions from last summer's high temperatures. The total amount of wild sheep pine trees tried this fall by the Yangyang Sokcho Forestry Cooperative was significantly lower than previous years.
