Pakistan exported 15,000 tons of red pepper to China and the first batch will arrive soon, which is expected to replace India

Pakistan exported its first batch of dried red chilies to China on December 21, the first batch of agricultural projects under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor.
The opening ceremony of the first batch of dried chili peppers exported to China under the agricultural industry demonstration and promotion project of Pakistan pepper planting under the framework of China-Pakistan Economic Corridor was held in the southern city of Karachi on the 19th.

Kausar Abdullah Malik, Minister of Food Security and Research of the caretaker Government of Pakistan, said at the launch ceremony that the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor is crucial to promoting agricultural trade cooperation and enhancing food security between Pakistan and China. Pakistan and China complement each other's advantages. The use of advanced agricultural technology to reduce crop diseases and pests is conducive to Pakistan's agricultural modernization and poverty alleviation. It is hoped that the two countries will continue to expand areas of agricultural cooperation and realize more exports of high-quality Pakistani agricultural products to China.
Guhar Ijaz, Minister of Commerce of the caretaker government of Pakistan, said in a video message that the expansion of Pakistan's agricultural exports is conducive to promoting the sustainable development of Pakistan-China trade, and the export of dried chili to China marks the arrival of a new era of Pakistan's agricultural exports.

China attaches great importance to promoting agricultural cooperation between the two countries. We will continue to promote trade facilitation measures, expand planting orders, promote local intensive processing of Pakistani agricultural products, support more high-quality Pakistani agricultural products to enter China, and continue to deepen and deepen agricultural cooperation between the two countries so as to bring more tangible benefits to the two peoples.
