Wheat imports are expected to be unchanged from the previous year at 4.5 million tonnes, while consumption is seen also holding steady at 4.1 million tonnes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The FAS said the increase in wheat demand in recent years in South Korea is due to \u201ca growing preference for Western-style snacks and treats that can be consumed quickly on the go, such as bread and pastries, rather than traditional Korean rice-based meals.\u201dThe report noted that South Korea is sourcing its wheat from a more diverse set of suppliers. Notably, the country\u2019s market share of Eastern European and Russian feed wheat in 2022-23 dropped to 11% from 85% in the previous year, while it increased its intake from Australia from 15% to 69%.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA \u2014 Rice production in South Korea is forecast to decline in marketing year 2023-24 by nearly 3% to 3.6 million tonnes on reduced acreage in response to government incentives encouraging farmers to switch to other grains, according to a Global Agricultural Information Network report from the Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) of the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10347,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[176],"tags":[320,159],"class_list":["post-10346","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-rice-production","tag-global-rice-news"],"acf":{"enable_premium_overlay":false},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
