북한의 농산물 무역 및 매체동향 분석을 통한 남북협력유망품목 발굴에 대한 연구

Abstract

North Korea is suffering from a decrease in food aid, a lack of supply of agricultural equipment, and a decrease in imports and exports of agricultural products due to international sanctions against North Korea, with food shortages and economic difficulties increasing. Currently, inter-Korean and North American relations are in a cooling-off period, but if they improve in the future, inter-Korean cooperation projects in the agricultural sector are the areas with the highest feasibility and probability of success. Inter-Korean agricultural cooperation projects are a very important field to solve North Korea's low agricultural productivity and food problems. Higher attention is needed for inter-Korean cooperation projects to resolve North Korea's food shortage, create added agricultural value, and improve the trade balance. This study examined the items and business areas that North Korea actually needs through analysis of North Korea's agricultural trade trends with China, calculation of trade competitiveness index, and North Korea's media analysis.
