delegation went to visit Liupanshui city, Guizhou Province, and discussed
cooperation projects with the local officials.Israel's agricultural technology is leading in the world while the Liupanshui city is a

Israel. As a result, the experience of Israeli agricultural development is of
great significance to the modern agricultural development of Liupanshui.

local officials visited the Kiwi Base in Modern Agriculture Industrial Park of
Shuicheng County, Liupanshui Liangdu Kiwi Industry Co., Ltd. and inspected the
implementation of the Israeli loan project of the municipal agricultural
investment corporation.

planting previously and more cooperation will be conducted in 2018.

could make an important contribution to the economy. The economic contribution
of agriculture to Liupanshui is very important. He hoped both sides will step
up cooperation in agriculture, medical care and education so as to jointly
improve their livelihood through cooperation.
