Korean food exports (current USD)
Korea's annual food exports per the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs. Two official series — switch above the chart: 'Agri-food' is the narrow measure (agricultural, livestock and processed food, excluding fishery, from 2015); 'K-Food+' is the broader total that adds related industries (smart farms, agricultural machinery, veterinary medicine), reported only from 2023.

Agricultural, livestock and processed-food exports only (excludes fishery). MAFRA official series, 2015 onward; 2016 omitted (no citable primary release).
The two series are not the same measure — K-Food+ is larger by the related-industry component, so the gap between them is scope, not growth.
