Participating items include Nonghyup's "Uri-sal Chip" and "Salro Pop" rice flour snacks, as well as rice flour for frying and pancakes, soy milk and tofu made from domestic soybeans, and noodles crafted from domestic wheat.
We hope this becomes an opportunity for consumers to purchase foods made from strategic crops at a low price.

We will strive to expand the consumption of domestic strategic crops.
