Agriculture is not following these developments. Korean government considers the modern horticultural production with emphasis on modern glasshouse production and especially flower growing, as a great potential to improve the welfare in the country. Korean government has far developed plans to import hundreds"^hectares of modern glasshouses with modern equipment. The Dutch greenhouse industry could possibly give support to these developments. On request of the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature Management and Fisheries, Department for Trade and Industry, Ir. A.P. Verhaegh of the Agricultural Economics Research Institute (AERI) visited Korea from March 30, 1992 till April 12, 1992 to study the Korean horticultural sector. Findings are published in this report.

    Choosing The Right Location Page 1 of 4 Choosing The Right Location Geography The Korean Peninsula lies in the north-eastern part of the Asian continent. It is bordered to the north by Russia and China, to the east by the East Sea and Japan, and to the west by the Yellow Sea. In addition to the mainland, South Korea comprises around 3,200 islands. At 99,313 sq km, the country is slightly larger than Austria. It has one of the highest population densities in the world, after Bangladesh and Taiwan, with more than 50% of its population living in the country’s six largest cities. Korea has a history spanning 5,000 years and you will find evidence of its rich and varied heritage in the many temples, palaces and city gates. These sit alongside contemporary architecture that reflects the growing economic importance of South Korea as an industrialised nation. In 1948, Korea divided into North Korea and South Korea. North Korea was allied to the, then, USSR and South Korea to the USA. The divide between the two countries at Panmunjom is one of the world’s most heavily fortified frontiers.

The analysis results show that there is statistically significant evidence that supports the land price difference between the restricted area and the unrestricted area of Namyangju caused by the restriction for water quality protection. In specific, under the semi- log model, the loss rate that the restricted area experience is 15.0% of the land price of the unrestricted area. Under the double-log model, the rate is estimated to be 19.8%. Based on the results from the regression analyses of the models, the total compensations for the city of Namyangju are estimated to be in the range between 6.5 and 8.6 trillion won.

The paper documents the trends of revenues and expenditures for 1973-1982 to study the fiscal performance of individual local governments compared with that of Seoul. The findings indicate that the rapidly growing satellite cities outperformed Seoul in terms of their ability to generate revenues owing largely to thte increased tax bases.
