North Korea Plans Agriculture Reforms

In a move to end rising food prices and malnutrition problems, North Korea plans to allow farmers to keep 30 to 50 percent of their crop depending on the region. This reform will also boost the Norths economy and will help crack down on private production. Kim Jong-un plans to gain investments form China in order to help the economy recover from sanctions put upon them for nuclear weapons testing. Kim Jong-un also shows intent to "banish memories of his father's austere 17-year rule." His plan of liberalizing the economy can only go so far, without losing his family's firm grip of power.
