Korean beef farmers are expressing concerns over the upcoming beef imports from France and Ireland due to rising production costs and falling prices of production areas. They are urging the government to protect the industry as they fear damage from increased imports. The government is set to check the sanitary standards of beef imported by companies through border quarantine, and the European Commission welcomes the decision, anticipating it will support the European beef industry. The Korean Beef Association is planning a rally to urge measures to protect the domestic beef industry and criticizes the abolition of the 'Support Act for a Sustainable Korean Beef Industry'. The distribution industry expects that the volume of imported beef will be minimal and that it will take a significant amount of time to establish an operation plan.
