Abstract: Under the regime of WTO, the directions for major countries' agricultural policies enter on two aspects such as global standard and national specialty. First, the aspect of global standard is drawn from the reflection process on each country's agricultural policy toward an ideology of WTO Agricultural Agreement. Second, national specialty of each country's agricultural policy stems from an effort for solving inherent agricultural problems under the stream of global universality. Agriculture and agricultural policies in Korea and Japan are rapidly changing with the stream of international affairs. In short, Korea and Japan were commonly tried to cope with the defensive position on the Uruguay Round under the globalization trend based on heterogeneous feeling toward the Western agriculture. Now, they are actively trying to throw into relief each country's specialty of agriculture in showing true perception of the global community in the recent WTO negotiation process.
