. While developing its own agriculture, China also insists on strengthening international cooperation in agricultural S&T and has in particular given a wide range of technical assistance to developing countries. As China and LAC countries constitute a community with a shared future featuring equality, mutual benefit and common development, agricultural cooperation between the two sides has yielded fruitful results and the LAC region has become the largest supplier of agri-products to China.

China welcomes all countries, including LAC countries, to participate in China's agricultural and rural development, and share benefits and opportunities.
