The RAUIE held a meeting with representatives of leading Chinese agri-tech company Digital Agriculture Supply Chain

A meeting was held at the RAUIE's central office in Moscow with representatives of the leading Chinese agri-tech company Digital Agriculture Supply Chain (DC农业), one of the leaders in digital agriculture and agri-food logistics in China.

During the meeting, the parties discussed the prospects for the company's localization in Russia, the exchange of agricultural technologies, and the launch of joint projects in the field of agricultural digitalization and trade.

Special attention was given to the following issues:

• The company's entry into the Russian market: discussing support mechanisms from RASP and opportunities for integration into the Russian agro-industrial infrastructure.
• Digital solutions and agri-tech: presenting the company's innovative approaches in "smart" agriculture, logistics, and agricultural supply management.
• Creating a joint Russian-Chinese platform for agricultural product trade: this initiative aims to simplify access for producers from both countries to each other's markets.
• Interaction with major Russian retail chains: discussing the establishment of dialogue with key players in retail and e-commerce.

In turn, the RAUIE is focused on opening the Russian market for technological and sustainable agri-partnerships with China, which is particularly important in the context of global food security challenges and the need to modernize the agro-industrial complex (AIC). Projects are being implemented in this direction to introduce modern agri-technologies, develop digital platforms, and create new value-added chains, which will enhance production efficiency, reduce costs, and ensure the export potential of both countries.

Additionally, the Union is actively working to create conditions for mutually beneficial exchanges of experience and knowledge, supporting initiatives for joint research activities and innovations in the agri-sector. As part of expanding cooperation, the development of logistics infrastructure and the creation of conditions for closer interaction among small and medium-sized businesses are also planned, which will contribute to strengthening economic partnerships and creating new jobs.

As a result of the meeting, both parties expressed mutual interest in expanding cooperation and launching the first pilot projects as early as 2025.
