South Korean agricultural technology export expansion

Overview

South Korea is looking to expand its agricultural exports by transitioning from simple food products to a comprehensive ‘K-Agri Tech’ package. This strategy involves integrating seeds, agricultural machinery, and smart farming technologies. While smart farming has shown high global competitiveness, the industry faces hurdles such as high logistics costs and insufficient export infrastructure.

Efforts to bolster this sector include exploring international cooperation, such as potential partnerships with Vietnam. These collaborations aim to combine South Korean technological expertise and data-driven management—utilizing sensors and AI for precise crop monitoring—with local production conditions to create modern, high-value agricultural models.
