BEIJING, Dec. 2 (APP): A delegation of 56 Pakistani agricultural specialists visited the 2025 Hubei Agriculture Expo the other day to get a first-hand exposure to modern farming techniques and green development models in China.
The visit marks a key segment of their three-month advanced training program in Hubei province aimed at enhancing Pakistan’s capacity in seed production, processing and market promotion.
The trainees are part of the 1,000 agricultural experts sent to China under the Pakistani Prime Minister’s Capacity Building Initiative. They arrived at Huazhong Agricultural University (HZAU) in Wuhan on November 10 to begin their intensive study, which will span until February 2026, CEN reported on Tuesday.
Running from November 28 to December 2, the expo features nearly 2,000 agricultural enterprises, research institutes and extension agencies, showcasing over 10,000 distinctive agricultural products. As a leading agricultural province, Hubei is a major producer of diverse crops, freshwater fish and vegetables, with its output in the latter two categories consistently ranking among the highest nationwide.
The Pakistani delegation engaged in in-depth discussions with exhibits demonstrating key technological breakthroughs and sustainable practices. Through physical displays, interactive models and digital screens, they explored advances in smart agriculture, green irrigation and integrated farming systems.
Specialists enthusiastically sampled local offerings such as Hubei oranges, honey, dried fruits, traditional rice cakes and tea, while also learning about the province’s iconic Wuchang fish. Demonstrations on agricultural drones and displays of Hanfu, the traditional ethnic dress of China, further enriched their cross-cultural exchanges.
