AGRICULTURE, FORESTRY AND FISHING Companies in North Korea
Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing companies in North Korea. Agriculture looks like the simplest sector to verify — a farm, a name, a plot of land. It rarely is. Ownership here often runs through family trusts, cooperatives, and, in many jurisdictions, foreign-land-ownership restrictions that route control through a domestic holding entity instead of the operator you would expect. The sector spans crop and livestock farms, forestry and logging operators, and commercial fisheries and aquaculture producers feeding raw commodities into much longer supply chains. For due diligence, the real exposure is not the farm gate — it is the subsidy filings, land-registry disclosures, and supply-chain traceability rules sitting on top of it.

Sector-specific developments that change how this data is used. Each carries a verification date so it can be refreshed on a schedule.
The EU deforestation rules apply from 30 December 2026
The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) requires operators placing cattle, wood, cocoa, coffee, palm oil or soya on the EU market to prove their supply chains are deforestation-free. After two postponements — originally due 30 December 2024, then pushed to 30 December 2025 — the Council of the EU adopted a further revision in December 2025 moving the application date for all operators to 30 December 2026, with an additional six-month allowance for micro and small operators to 30 June 2027. For North Korea operators and exporters supplying the EU market, this is now the operative compliance deadline.

Who uses North Korea agriculture, forestry and fishing ownership data
The three checks this sector's data is most often run for.
A chronic food deficit persists despite limited UN-sanctioned aid
An estimated 12 million people, roughly half the population, are undernourished, according to a UN Special Rapporteur report to the Human Rights Council in March 2025, citing limited arable land, outdated equipment and recurrent flooding and drought; North Korea does not publish independent agricultural statistics. In January 2025 the UN approved sanctions exemptions allowing the FAO to deliver an estimated $158,000 of agricultural equipment and technical support for wheat and barley cultivation. Separately, North Korea has continued selling illegal squid-fishing permits to Chinese vessels despite a 2017 UN Security Council ban on North Korean seafood exports and fishing-licence sales, though the scale of this activity in 2025-2026 specifically could not be verified.
