BEIJING: “The agricultural cooperation under China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) has three main goals. First, to help Pakistan improve agricultural research sustainability.
Second, according to a China Economic Net’s report to promote the development of Pakistan’s export-oriented economy.
Third, to introduce more advanced agricultural production factors into Pakistan,” said Dr. Gu Wenliang, Agricultural Commissioner at the Chinese Embassy in Pakistan, on what is happening in the agricultural sector under CPEC to further boost China-Pakistan cooperation in a webinar themed by “COVID-19 and Higher Education:
Addressing about food Security through Policy Support and Research”, he said “Pakistan’s economy is basically export-oriented and the majority of the exports are agricultural products. We’d like to promote value-added processing to help more Pakistani products up to the international standards, entering more markets globally.
