Suggesting many breakthrough solutions and new thinking
The forum recorded many enthusiastic opinions, revolving around key issues such as building standard raw material areas, promoting deep processing, applying digital transformation, perfecting the logistics system, improving trade promotion capacity and expanding export markets.
Delegates pointed out the shortcomings in the past as well as solutions that need to be focused on the following issues: Managing production scale to minimize the increase in area, rapid development along with technical and scientific solutions.
