The periodic market is different from ordinary markets in that it performs the dual functions of supplying consumer goods and collecting agricultural produce. Due to the recent changes in rural Korea, many scholars and policy makers believe that both functions of the periodic market have been replaced by other functional alternatives. The concern of this study is not only to deepen understanding of periodic marketing but also to find and utilize its development potentials. Being exploratory and descriptive in nature, this study adopts qualitative research methods. Field study was carried on for one year from March in 1982 in a market area in the southern part of Korea. The periodic market is shown to perform actively the acknowledged roles. Functional alternatives recently provided in rural areas, especially the NACF chainstores, only supplement the function of the periodic market as a supplier of consumer goods, or cater to different sets of population. It is projected that the activeness of the supplier function depends on the activeness of the periodic rice market. The periodic rice market is still the most popular channel for consigning traditional varieties (ilban-mi) in the study area. The grain mill channel is preferred by an increasing number of farmers because of its convenience. However, its fairness in mediating rice transactions is argued to be maintained because of the active periodic rice market which serves as a safeguard. The activeness of the rice market is undermined not only because of farmers' preference for other rice channels and the overall change in the socio-economic status of the market area, but also because of the extent of commercial farming of the area which occurs through cattle raising and dealing. This process, which eventually incorporates subsistence-oriented farmers into the market economy is revealed as an important latent function of periodic marketing. It is shown to work as a production incentive which over time results in a sizable production from the market area, on the basis of which local producers can engage more effectively in collective bargaining with middlemen.
