The first Korean pork exported to Japan in nine years will leave port Monday according to the Ministry for Food, Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries yesterday.

The country banned Korean imports in 2000 due to outbreaks of foot-and-mouth disease and hog cholera. The resumption of trade is expected to help local farmers increase the production and sales.

The sale to Japan of pork from Jeju Island off Korea’s southern coast will resume Sept. 28, while two other local food companies that were officially granted the right to export to Japan will start next month.
