South Korea has banned imports of all meat and by-products from cloven-hoofed animals in Japan after Tokyo confirmed an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease.

Fully processed food and hide products may be imported if they meet set production standards, although most goods from cloven hoofed animals will not be allowed to enter the country for the time being. These include fresh pork, many ham products, and animal hides, the officials said. South Korea imported USD 7.5 million worth of meat and other products made from Japanese livestock in 2009.
