South Korea will raise the volume limit of imported pork subject to its tariff quota system, in a bid to tame rising food costs.

Last month, the government imposed a tariff quota on a total of 60,000 tonnes of pork, cutting import taxes from 25% to zero until June. Vice Minister of Strategy and Finance Jong-Yong Yim said this amount would be increased in order to remove market anxiety caused by recent price instability.
