On the sidelines of events in the United States marking the presentation of the World Food Prize, the Minister of Agriculture of the Republic of Uzbekistan Ibrohim Abdurakhmonov met with QU Dongyu, Director-General of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO).

The FAO Director-General shared his impressions of his visit to Uzbekistan, his meeting with President Shavkat Mirziyoyev, and the reforms underway in the country.

Noting Uzbekistan’s ongoing changes and modernization efforts, the FAO Director-General said the country’s reforms set an example for other nations. This recognition is especially significant because it highlights the international importance of the transformations underway in the agricultural sector.

The FAO Director-General’s recognition of Uzbekistan’s reforms and his positive assessment of international events held in the country reflect the development of a constructive environment for dialogue and cooperation in the agricultural sector.

The parties reached important agreements on expanding cooperation between Uzbekistan and FAO.
