Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Korea and Irrigation Chosen, or Korea, as the country is called in the West, is essentially an agricultural country, 80 percent of the whole population being engaged in agricultural pursuits of one kind or another, while as many percent of the total value of the products of various industries, agriculture included, and no less than 70 percent of the total value of exports are represented by agricultural products. The country is destitute of large plains, being prominently mountainous, but even at its present stage of agricultural development it produces not only enough to feed the people, but also to permit a good part of its products to be exported. For instance, during the year 1925, it produced 73,274,080 bushels of rice, of which 23,103,680 bushels were exported, chiefly to Japan, bringing into the country no less than Yen 173,160,000. But this does not mean that the country is highly developed agriculturally. On the contrary, in spite of all that Japan has done since the country was annexed by her in 1910, there are still left plenty of agricultural resources not yet utilized, and its advantages not yet fully availed of.
