South Korea is located in the Korean Peninsula, in the northeastern part of Asia, the astronomical environment resolves the Korean Peninsula, South Korea's winter climate is very cold, coupled with the territory is small and rich, so the whole of South Korea's main vegetable intake is suitable for the growth of cold regions in the cabbage.

In order to keep cabbage for a long time, Koreans also love to eat pickled kimchi. Cabbage occupies a vital place on the Korean table, so that Korea, as a prosperous country, even sometimes have to buy sky-high prices of cabbage.

Korea's kimchi enjoys great fame all over the world, in the Korean people's dinner table will often show a variety of kimchi figure, most of them are mainly cabbage. Korea's daily table is often a variety of kimchi, so much so that the Chinese teased the Korean table in addition to pickles is pickles.

On their kimchi is the foundation of their survival, in the Korean home and even special storage kimchi refrigerator, Koreans can not get away from the kimchi a day like the Chinese can not get away from the steamed buns and rice as well.

By definition, kimchi is the most indispensable thing for the Korean people, is notorious just need, and therefore the price of cabbage should be very civilian, but the strange thing is that the Korean kimchi is the original material of the price of cabbage is not cheap.

Recently, the price of Korean cabbage rose, causing a large number of Koreans to call the survival of the difficulties, and even once presented the people had been unable to afford to eat the action of cabbage.

Being a prosperous country, South Korea's per capita GDP is much higher than our country, in our country is very cheap cabbage why will let the South Koreans can not afford to eat it? In fact, said complete can't afford to eat is certainly an exaggeration, but the high price of Korean cabbage is indeed also very surprising, according to Korean media reports Korean cabbage can even be sold to 62 yuan a, which makes our netizens very shocked.

If it is the usual occasional consumption of vegetable prices, then certainly some high but still able to afford, but the cabbage is the Korean people are not able to leave the vegetables, the price of 62 yuan has been a lot of ordinary Korean families can hardly accept.

The reason why the Korean cabbage can have such a high price, mainly due to the special nature of 2020, 2020 is a very special year, the World Health Organization based on the observed data issued a letter that 2020 is the warmest year on record, due to the rise in temperature and the second half of the Neil Nino phenomenon, La Ni?a phenomenon of the transformation. The climate in several regions of the globe has shown unstable and diverse changes compared to previous years.

The onset of the global disaster continues unabated, and due to the epidemic locust plague and the impact of the Australian fires, the global food production has fallen dramatically, a series of disasters on the destruction of agriculture is very fatal and even some centers have presented a food crisis.

These conditions of the attack, the formation of South Korea's high price of cabbage, 2020, South Korea's overall economy tends to deteriorate, the epidemic and the economy to bring the double impact, so that people's lives worse, coupled with the rise in the price of cabbage, at a time when a great deal of social problems caused.

Because of the increase in the price of raw material cabbage, South Korea originally many restaurants that provide free kimchi also withdrew the free service of kimchi, originally everywhere kimchi prices have risen and even burgers inside the tomato and cabbage have been quietly withdrawn, according to solid data, the Korean cabbage in 2020 compared to 2019 rose by 40%.

Seoul, the capital of South Korea, is one of the world's higher cost of living cities, although the local people's wages are also higher, but in contrast to the high cost of living, the material life of the Korean people is not very rich. Coupled with the fact that many things in South Korea rely on imports, so the high price of vegetables, fruits and meat has become a difficult problem to deal with in South Korea.

What is puzzling is that the price of cabbage has risen so seriously, the South Korean government did not make efforts? Korea's situation is very complex, their society in addition to the government's domination, but also related to the forest of plutocrats, South Korea's various industries are ruled by different plutocrats, some people say that South Korea is a plutocrat-controlled society.

From the founding of South Korea to the present day, the South Korean government also recognizes the problem of food can not be self-sufficient, they have gone through several adjustments to the agricultural policy, the beginning of the development of agriculture want to deal with the problem of food rations for the people of the whole country, to the extent that the agricultural population once reached the country's population of 80%.

The output at that time was even able to meet the needs of the country, but later with the intervention of the Zaibatsu, the country's economic center of gravity adjustment began to industrialization, coupled with the city and the countryside of the huge gap, more and more farmers began to give up their careers into the city, resulting in the formation of South Korea's agricultural products, a substantial decline in production.

The South Korean government in order to subsidize agriculture to encourage people to plant, set the world's highest agricultural subsidy norms, but these issues did not can improve the high price of agricultural products in South Korea. Because of the government's subsidy policy progress, the Korean People's Agriculture Association often organize demonstrations to protest against the government to import agricultural products, so as to ensure the price of their own products, the South Korean government this policy can be said to be counterproductive, and even contributed to the South Korean agricultural products prices higher and higher.

With South Korea's participation in the WTO, Europe and the United States complete industrialization of the form of agricultural consumption so that South Korea's rural agriculture is difficult to resist, even with government subsidies can not be sustained, South Korea's agricultural defeat.

South Korea had to import foreign agricultural products, imports will inevitably form the product price increases, according to the relevant organizations of the same quality of Korean agricultural products in the market under normal conditions than the international average price is about 2.5 times higher.

And South Korea's neighboring China's situation is very different, China's Shandong Province and South Korea due to the proximity of the interval, many South Korean people are living in Shandong or traveled, they came to Shandong, just enter the market, will be here for the abundance of food, food prices of the affordable to be surprised.

The Chinese government began in 1988 to create a "food basket project" to deal with the people's daily needs of vegetables, egg products, dairy products, and meat supply and price problems, so China and South Korea's agricultural products prices can be said to have a very different.

China's land is vast and rich, many food categories can be self-produced, coupled with China's focus on people's livelihoods, as well as 1.8 billion acres of arable land red line development, so that ordinary people are able to buy their own needs of agricultural products at a normal price, preventing the Chinese people from falling into the same dilemma as the South Korean people.
