According to Chinese Government reporting to the World Food Program’s International Food Aid Information System (INTERFAIS), the Chinese Government donated and delivered 20,000 metric tons of rice to North Korea in 2012. To estimate the monetary value of the rice donation ($10,821,000), AidData takes the international price of a ton of rice in January 2012 ($541.05) and multiplies it by 20,000 tons.
