As IRIB reported, Iran’s Agriculture Minister Mohammad-Ali Nikbakht, who is the Iranian chair of the joint committee, headed a high-ranking delegation to the country in order to meet with Kyrgyz officials and attend the meeting.
Prior to the meeting, Nikbakht met and held talks with the Kyrgyz economy and agriculture ministers and discussed ways of expanding ties in various economic sectors.
Speaking in his meeting with the Kyrgyz Agriculture Minister Askarbek Janybekov, Nikbakht said: “The value of trade between the two countries was $78 million last year and $33 million this year, which is not a significant figure considering the will of the high officials of the two countries to develop relations.”
“We are ready to take action in various fields to develop investment and trade between the two countries as quickly as possible. Iran has successful experiences in the fields of aquaculture and fisheries, modern irrigation methods, watershed management, and greenhouse products, and we are willing to provide such experience to the Kyrgyz side,” he added.
