North Korea forced to cut food rations to record low after 'worst harvest in a decade'

North Korea’s daily food rations have been cut to a record low this year after experiencing the worst harvest in a decade.

The Hermit State has rations to 300 grams a day — or 11 ounces - with further cuts likely the United Nations said on Friday.

According to US organisation The Nutrition Centre, a good mix of proteins, carbohydrates, fruit, vegetables and dairy products weighs 2 kilos per day per person.

The UN conducted a food assessment between March 29 to April 12, at the request of North Korea.

The organization was given wide access to the country, including cooperative farms, nurseries, households and food distribution centres.

The Maduro Diet.

Kim's 300 grams are going to be vodka, frontovye 300 gramm, because, well, he's the supreme general and worth three regular soldiers on the front. In addition to his usual rations.
