CAIRO, May 7, 2018 (MENA) - Minister of Agriculture and Land Reclamation Abdul Moneim el Banna on Monday discussed with his Ugandan counterpart Vincent Ssempijja means of increasing co-operation in agricultural areas. This came during a meeting in Cairo where the two parties reviewed measures of establishing a joint model farm in Uganda to help transfer the Egyptian expertise in crop production to the State of Uganda. They also discussed promoting opportunities for trading agricultural products between both countries and overcoming any barriers in this regard. El-Banna asserted Egypt's keenness on fostering co-operation with its fellow African states for the good of the African continent. As part of this co-operation, the Egyptian minister also emphasised the importance of training and knowledge sharing in the areas of crop, livestock and fish production as well as agricultural research.
