Korea
Policy is increasingly focused on food safety, farm household income stabilization, environment, and rural development. Through institutional changes and the establishment of the Food Industry Promotion Act in 2007, the Korean government is also trying to strengthen links between agriculture and the food industry. FTA negotiations with the United States were concluded in April 2007 and will significantly open the market when the agreement begins to be implemented.
