Recent improvements in North Korea’s agriculture and animal husbandry sectors make those potential avenues for inter-Korean cooperation, a researcher at the Seoul-based Korea Development Bank said.

Rhee Yoojin, a researcher from the KDB reunification department, on Monday published a report on North Korean development issues, which she expounded upon with NK News. In the paper, Rhee analyzes improvements in those sectors of the North and suggests building a distribution center near Pyongyang as well as infrastructure for autonomous development.
