Central Africa Agriculture Technology Industry Cooperation Forum Focuses on Agricultural Modernization Cooperation

The three-day 2026 China-Africa Agricultural Science and Technology Industry Cooperation Forum and Exhibition opened in Nairobi, the capital of Kenya, on the 9th. More than 100 representatives from government departments, international organizations, research institutions, universities, business associations, and companies from China and Africa jointly discussed new paths for cooperation in agricultural modernization between China and Africa. Chinese Ambassador to Kenya Guo Haiyan stated in her opening speech at the forum that agricultural modernization has become an important area of mutually beneficial cooperation between China and Africa within the framework of the China-Africa Cooperation Forum. China's successful experience can provide valuable reference for African countries to promote agricultural modernization. Chinese agricultural technology, equipment, and products can help Africa accelerate agricultural transformation, achieve food and nutrition security, and China's zero tariff policy creates golden opportunities for African agricultural exports. The combination of Africa's abundant agricultural resources and young population advantage with China's development experience, advanced technology, and vast market will inject strong momentum for both sides to promote agricultural modernization, improve food security levels, and achieve common prosperity.
