Chinese agricultural experts have initiated a month-long training program for local extension workers focused on vegetable cultivation. The event, part of the China-aid Agriculture Technology Cooperation Project at the Jambanjelly Mix Farming Center, involves sixty participants from various agricultural backgrounds.
Alagie Nyangado, Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Agriculture, recognized the longstanding bilateral relationship with China and emphasized horticulture's role as a national backbone. He stated that a productive agricultural sector, which employs a majority of the population, is fundamental for economic development.
Economic and Commercial Counselor Tong Zhan confirmed that the Chinese Embassy collaborated with the ministry to enhance professional capacity in agriculture. Weng Yong, a director from the Longping High-tech International Training Centre, described the program as a vital bridge for China-Africa cooperation. He noted that since diplomatic relations resumed, significant progress has been made in technology promotion and talent development.
