This article notes the changes in North Korea's agricultural structure is intertwined to the changes in distribution structure following the development of the North's market system. Specifically, the purpose of this study is to lay the foundation for integrated legislation of agricultural wholesale markets between two Koreas. The significance of the study was analyzed as follows.
First, the distribution structure of agricultural products in North Korea is analyzed from a physical, human and institutional perspective, revealing that the wholesale market-oriented institutional approach was valid.
Second, comparing the wholesale market corporation system centered on the auction system and the market wholesale system centered on the free transactions system at a fixed price, and examining the integration of agricultural markets into the free transactions system at a fixed price was valid.
Third, examine South Korea's Agricultural Law which stipulates “transparency,” “fairness,” and “stability of payment,” for the free transactions system at a fixed price to make a integrated legislation.
Finally, we present the effects that can be expected if the free transactions system at a fixed price is successfully applied to the exchange and integration process of the agricultural distribution market. And propose a paradigm change and follow-up study of the agricultural exchange and cooperation project.
