INCHEON, South Korea, Aug. 13 (Xinhua) — Agriculture ministers from China, the Republic of Korea (ROK) and Japan held the fourth trilateral meeting here on Monday.
The meeting, which focused on food security, animal diseases and sustainable agriculture, took place seven years after the previous one, which was held in China in 2018, according to a joint statement.
During the meeting, ministers highlighted the many challenges facing the agricultural sector, including the climate crisis, the cross-border spread of infectious diseases and unstable supply chains. They reiterated the importance of sharing information and working together to address them.
The heads of departments agreed to deepen mutually complementary cooperation, paying special attention to areas such as intelligent agricultural technologies, green and low-carbon agriculture, and training young specialists for agriculture.
Chinese Minister of Agriculture and Rural Affairs Han Jun said China is willing to work with Japan and the ROK to comprehensively resume agricultural cooperation and establish a new trilateral cooperation structure in this area that is more sustainable, broader in scope, closer in communication and richer in content, so as to jointly contribute to promoting the revitalization, prosperity and development of agriculture and rural areas.
The ministers agreed to cooperate in the area of globally significant agricultural heritage systems and to strengthen cooperation at the international and regional levels.
Following the meeting, the parties issued a joint statement announcing their intention to hold such meetings on a regular basis. The next meeting will be held in Japan. –0–
