North Koreans have been stealing each other's feces while Kim Jong-Un demands an incredibly high quota of human waste from his people to use as fertilizer.

North Koreans have been forced to steal each other’s feces after Kim Jong-Un demanded an incredibly high quota of human waste from his people to use as fertilizer.

The Kim regime forces citizens to stockpile feces every January, hoping to increase crop yields despite chronic national fertilizer shortages.

This year’s quota is “incredibly high,” according to Radio Free Asia: it forces North Koreans to steal or buy each other’s poop, or face punishment.

Each adult must contribute 500 kg of human waste and each school child, 200 kg.

This is well above the 145kg of feces the average person produces in a year, according to Live Science.

And now the cargo is sparking fights, with North Koreans coming to blows trying to defend their waste from their desperate neighbors.

A fight in Unsan county, north of the capital, left two men hospitalized, a local source told RFA.

He said: ‘A factory worker was trying to steal feces from a latrine next to the other guy’s house.

“They were fighting each other with axes and shovels and were seriously injured.”

In another incident, a fight broke out after a schoolboy was caught raiding public toilets.

“The head of the neighborhood watch unit overturned the student’s stroller and yelled at him,” the source said.

“Then the boy’s mother came out and argued with the leader of the surveillance unit, asking him if the poop belonged to him.

“Things escalated and a full-blown fight broke out.”

Another source, concerned about how she would meet her quota, said the women were expected to find up to a full metric ton of excrement.

This is because women are classified as “housewives,” even though most have to work to supplement their husbands’ government salaries.

She told RFA: ‘The neighborhood community toilets are closed and inaccessible, so where can I find enough feces to compost?’

This year's poop quota is said to be particularly high, with the government requiring its citizens to provide 500kg of human waste.

Despite North Korea's dire need for human waste, Kim released at least 260 white balloons filled with waste last year.

Despite North Korea’s dire need for human waste, Kim dropped at least 260 white balloons filled with “disgusting waste and garbage” into South Korea last year.

“We have to steal pig excrement that accumulates next to private pigsties or human feces from private toilets, which causes frequent fights.”

He added: ‘The authorities cannot provide us with food, but they force us to provide fertilizer.

‘There is no other country in the world where people fight over human feces. The authorities are responsible for this.”

But fights aren’t the only public health danger caused by poop urges.

Greg Scarlatoiu, executive director of the Human Rights Committee of North Korea (HRNK), said intestinal worms were abundant.

He said: ‘Since the end of the Cold War, North Korea has no longer benefited from subsidized imports and gifts from former communist sister countries.

‘Fertilizers were one of the first victims of this development, with devastating effects for agriculture in North Korea.

‘The regime has tried to compensate for this by collecting human feces to use as fertilizer.

‘The public health effects have been devastating, particularly the prevalence of intestinal worms due to this practice.

“The practice of stealing human feces from neighbors to meet allocated quotas is a grotesque symbol of North Korea’s profound economic failure.”

The punishment for those who fall short is unclear, but evidence from years past paints a dire picture.

A source in the northern province of Ryanggang told RFA in 2024 that those who failed could be publicly reprimanded or face “severe punishment” at a labor training camp, famous for subjecting its inmates to the most inhuman experiences.

Despite North Korea’s dire need for human waste, Kim dropped at least 260 white balloons filled with “disgusting waste and garbage” over South Korea last year, as the regime sought to teach its neighbors a lesson amid a crisis never seen before. -end the propaganda war.

The balloons were apparently carrying various items of rubbish, including plastic bottles, batteries, toilet paper and what is believed to be manure.

As a result, authorities urged South Korean residents to stay home.

South Korean media shared images showing garbage bags tied to large white balloons hanging over fields and roads, as well as the aftermath of the landings, where what appeared to be feces had exploded on the ground.

Historically, North Korea and South Korea have used balloons in their propaganda campaigns since the Korean War in the 1950s.

North Korean defectors have been known to send balloons to the northern side containing anti-regime leaflets and have also reportedly sent USB flash drives containing Korean pop music and videos, which are banned in North Korea’s communist regime.
