South Korea's Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs official outlined feed industry policy at a seminar on November 3, 2026, including stronger management of pig plasma protein feed ingredients over African swine fever safety concerns. The ministry plans a four-stage safety framework and a revision of the related notice by year-end.
Around 80% of Korea's feed raw materials are imported, and feed accounts for about 54.7% of livestock production costs.
Tighter controls on imported-style animal plasma protein inputs could tighten supply of a premium piglet feed ingredient and raise compliance costs for feed makers, with modest upward pressure on feed prices. Heavy import dependence keeps Korean feed costs tied to global grain prices and the won.
