China vows to build world-class agricultural products fair
Updated: 2006-10-18 11:16 BEIJING -- The China
International Agricultural Products Fair should be developed into a world-class
exhibition to ensure prosperous agricultural development, said Vice Premier Hui
Liangyu on Tuesday.
With the theme "New countryside, new agriculture, new life", the Fourth China
International Agricultural Products Fair opened in Beijing on Tuesday.
The fair exhibits agricultural products from all over the country. The
returned capsule of the Shijian-8, China's seed-breeding satellite, is also on
display.
Hui said the fair has served as an important platform for the display of
China's agricultural products. By turning it into a world-class exhibition, the
fair will play a more important role in promoting international and regional
agricultural cooperation.
China has begun well in its initiative to develop a socialist countryside,
said Hui. It will continue to support the development of rural economy and help
farmers to raise their incomes.
