Pyeongtaek Market Overview
Pyeongtaek Port handles bulk agricultural imports for South Korea's livestock feed sector. Feed mills around Anseong and Asan source protein supplements through this route. Korean buyers prefer HPS grades because hand-sorting reduces shell fragments that damage pellet mills. The 60/70 count fits standard feed formulations at 3-5% inclusion rates. Port Pyeongtaek charges lower demurrage than Busan, making it cost-effective for 20ft containers. Lead time from Gujarat ports runs 18-22 days. Most shipments clear customs within 48 hours with proper phytosanitary docs.

This grade holds max 10% moisture, which prevents mold during the 3-week sea transit to Pyeongtaek. Admixture stays under 3%, with defective kernels capped at 5%. The 60-70 kernels per ounce sizing works for grinder capacity at feed plants. Hand-picking removes stones and metal bits that wreck hammer mills. Protein content sits around 25-26%, good enough for poultry and swine rations. No aflatoxin above 20 ppb, meeting Korean feed safety limits. This spec passes SGS checks without rework.

Pricing and Value
HPS 60/70 costs 15-20% less than blanched splits but delivers similar protein for feed use. No need for extra cleaning since hand-picking is already done. Feed mills save on pre-processing equipment and labor. The economy grade keeps your formulation costs down while meeting nutritional targets.
