Koreans are knows for leading a sedentary way of life. Forging is not commonly practiced Korea, this is due to the life style of the people, and the geographical area. In the past days hunting was used to get food but now a days it is not practiced anymore , because it is illegal to hunt in most of the places . Pastoralism is not practiced at all in all aspects; people lead a sedentary way of life. Koreans are known for growing rice (which is a staple food) in one place and they keep growing it year over year so pastoralist is not practiced at all. In most parts people use mechanized way of agriculture but still some areas are covered with human labor. Some have subsistence way of living while some produce at large for the market and profit. When it comes to production it is half and half things are imported and, on the other side some are exported. So it is more balanced. For example- ships and cell phones are among the popular things exported to the outside world while oil is the commonly imported good. Some part of Korea is known for fishing, which is the east coast, some do fishing for business. Horticulture (burning the land and letting it rest for few years) is practiced in few areas but it is not common anymore. Irrigation is also common in few areas in accordance with the location. Korean food production doesn’t use much of chemicals for production. They are known for eating vegetable .
