North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has spent vast sums of money on two rocket launches despite reports of desperate food shortages in the country and concerns that 10,000 people have died in a famine
Undercover reporters from Asia Press told the Sunday Times that one man dug up his grandchild's corpse and ate it. Another, boiled his own child for food.
There are fears he is planning a nuclear test in protest at a UN Security Council punishment for the recent rocket launches and to counter what it sees as US hostility.
One informant was quoted as saying: 'In my village in May a man who killed his own two children and tried to eat them was executed by a firing squad.'
Farming communities, such as these pictured outside the capital Pyongyang last year, have been desperately hit by drought which has led to reports of people turning to cannibalism in a bid to ward off starvation
One official said the fields are in such a bad state from drought that he had to avert his eyes
The informant said the father killed his eldest daughter while his wife was away on business and then killed his son because he had witnessed the murder.
When his wife returned the man told her they had 'meat' but she became suspicious and contacted officials who discovered part of the children's bodies.
Jiro Ishimaru, from Asia Press, which compiled a 12 page report, said: 'Particularly shocking were the numerous testimonies that hit us about cannibalism.'
Undercover reporters said food was confiscated from the two provinces and given to the residents of the capital Pyongyang.
A drought then left food supplies desperately short.
Cannibalism has also been reported in the vast network of prison camps inside North Korea, such as Camp 22, pictured, where 50,000 are believed to be imprisoned
The Sunday Times also quoted an official of the ruling Korean Worker's party as saying: 'In a village in Chongdan county, a man who went mad with hunger boiled his own child, ate his flesh and was arrested.
United Nations officials visited the area during a state-sponsored trip but local reporters said it is unlikely they were shown the famine-hit areas.
It has not the first time that reports of cannibalism have come out of the country.
In May last year, the South Korean state-run Korean Institute for National Unification said that one man was executed after eating part of a colleague and then trying to sell the remains as mutton.
One man killed and ate a girl and a third report of cannibalism was recorded from 2011.
Another man was executed in May after murdering 11 people and selling the bodies as pork.
There were also reports of cannibalism in the country's network of prison camps.
North Korea was hit by a terrible famine in the 1990s - known as the Arduous March - which killed between 240,000 and 3.5million people.

To have the attorney general investigate Yelp.com for deceptive, bullying, and shoddy practices.
Yelp is filtering good reviews while allowing bad reviews to show up for companies that don’t advertise with them. This is creating opportunities for companies engaged in wrongful behaviors to leave bad reviews unchecked on their competitor’s websites.
This slanderous practice is so disappointing because there are no checks and balances to allow a legitimate company to remove any false review posted on their page. There are dozens of websites with frustrated business owners expressing similar nightmares.
Many complaints have been logged with the better business bureau. Many pending lawsuits against them. Small business owners have reached out to state attorney generals who are not able to do anything.
It is time for the administration to have the AG office look into the practices of yelp
YELP.COM IS KILLING SMALL BUSINESSES ALL OVER THE COUNTRY , PLEASE HELP TO STOP THEM..LETS UNITE AND FIGHT THEIR ONLINE EXTORTION .
