South Koreans today consume half as much rice as they did 30 years ago. Data released by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs (MAFRA) on Jan. 28 reveals that the every Korean in 1980 consumed an average of around 132.7kg of rice a year. The average Korean in 2018 consumed 61kg in 2018. MAFRA plans on responding to this drastic decrease in rice consumption by sponsoring R&D to make rice preparation consumption more convenient.
