 The Secretariat of Agriculture, Livestock, Rural Development, Fisheries and Food (SAGARPA) coordinated the trade mission visit of several businessmen from the People's Republic of China that are interested in acquiring Mexican pecan nuts directly from the producers of the region of Laguna.
 
The general coordinator of International Affairs, Raul Urteaga Trani, said this trade mission was the result of the agreements reached during the visit to China that the Secretary of Agriculture performed late last year. 
 
Raul Urteaga stated that the Chinese mission was composed of 28 buyers representing 14 companies in the Asian nation, who held business roundtables with 34 Mexican  producers of 25 nut organizations from the states of Coahuila, Chihuahua, and Durango.
 
SAGARPA stated that the producers and traders of both countries had signed an agreement of understanding.
 
Chinese authorities decided to temporarily reduce tariffs on pecan nuts from Mexico, from 25 percent to 10 percent, he said.
 
Meanwhile, the leader of the buyers of the Chinese delegation, Bian Zhenhu, said his country was the largest importer of nuts in the world, that they had an annual 10 percent growth in demand, and that this was the reason his government had endorsed purchasing nuts from Mexico. 
 
The trade mission visited two farms that produce walnuts, where the Chinese visitors were shown the Good Production Practices used in the region. Afterwards, they toured a nut packing plant from where the product is exported to the United States and other international destinations.
