The minister told reporters at the international agricultural expo Belagro 2017 that the Chinese market is one of the most promising for the supply of Belarusian agricultural products.

Mr Zayats said that Belarus had strengthened its supplies to China.

The official informed that on 16 June, experts from the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of China conducted inspections in Belarus for the accreditation of local meat processing enterprises.

The minister noted that in July, an agreement is to be signed that gives the right to Belarusian companies to supply beef to the Chinese market.

He also recalled that 34 dairy enterprises are already certified to supply milk to the Chinese market.

Belarus actively diversifies the supply of its agricultural products, Zayats concluded.
