ダウンロード "S. Korea's imported grain prices to keep rising this year on Ukraine war: Report"

2분기 수입 곡물 가격 또 오른다…식용 10.4%↑, 사료용 13.6%↑ 전망 Economists are projecting that the prices of imported grains in South Korea will likely keep rising for the next several quarters. It's expected to affect grains for animal feed... and food for people, which will mean higher prices for businesses... and consumers alike. Min Suk-hyen reports. The prices of imported grains in South Korea... are expected to keep rising in the second quarter and beyond. According the Center for Agricultural Outlook under the Korea Rural Economic Institute, imported grains for human consumption are expected to rise by 10-point-4 percent from the previous quarter... while grains for animal feed are likely to increase by 13-point-6 percent. The projected rise was attributed to several factors. These include the war in Ukraine, which is disrupting harvests and shipments in one of the world's biggest grain-producing countries, along with rising rates for sea freight... and a weakening Korean won against the U.S. dollar. With those risks to remain, the institute says the prices of imported food grains and animal feed grains are both likely to keep rising for six straight quarters. This means high prices for products down the line... that use grains of both kinds, including even meat,... which will push South Korea's already high inflation... even higher. Food and beverage manufacturers, restaurants and farmers will have to pass on these soaring prices to consumers. Already, the sharp rise in wheat prices has led to higher prices for Korean noodle dishes, like Naengmyeon, Jajangmyeon and Kalguksu.
