Xi'an: G20 Agricultural Entrepreneur Forum Professor Sigman of Argentina gives an important speech

Xinhuanet Xi'an June 3rd (Reporter Liu Wei Zhang Junhe) On June 2nd, the G20 Group's first Agricultural Entrepreneur Forum was successfully held in Xi'an. Minister of Agriculture Han Changfu attended the opening ceremony and delivered a keynote speech. Shaanxi Provincial Governor Hu Heping delivered a speech. Professor Hugo Sigman, CEO of INSUD Group of Argentina, delivered a keynote speech at the conference as an entrepreneur representative.

Sigman pointed out that the most important role of all companies engaged in agricultural production in the world is the food givers and manufacturers. There are still more than 800 million people in the world who are suffering from hunger due to lack of food. Even many children cannot get food because they have no food. Survival, the number of children who die from hunger is far greater than the number of people who die from malaria. As an agribusiness, we have a shared responsibility to solve this problem. We need governments and businesses to make joint efforts to increase the productivity of food. The G20 Agricultural Entrepreneur Forum has created the most valuable platform for entrepreneurs to facilitate global agricultural companies to vote together, learn from each other, innovate and collaborate together, and achieve sustainable agricultural investment.

Through three successful cases of agricultural cooperation between China and Afghanistan, Sigma explained the significance of global agricultural cooperation and innovation. According to Sigman, in terms of animal health and production, Argentina has a long history of fighting disease and producing vaccines. The Chinese and Argentine governments started a cooperation in 2011 and extended this cooperation to two Central Asian countries. Private biotech companies. Shanghai Haili and Argentine Shengyuan Baco jointly established Yangling Jinhai Biotechnology Co., Ltd. to establish a factory to bring advanced vaccine production technology to China. Now, the company's foot-and-mouth disease vaccine production capacity has reached 400 million doses per year.

In terms of crop protection and production, Sigman said that Argentina's BIOCERES Biotechnology Company and China's Dabei Agricultural Group started cooperation in 2013. This partnership is dedicated to the development and opening of soybean varieties, combined with crop protection and agronomic traits. New biological traits to improve the quality of the left panel. This cooperation has made breakthroughs in technology development, and developed HB4 traits with good drought and salt tolerance and glyphosate and glufosinate resistance traits. In the future, with the deepening of cooperation and innovation, more excellent crop traits will be produced.

In animal husbandry, China and Afghanistan have also cooperated to improve the quality of meat. Sigman said that the consumption demand for meat products will continue to grow in the future. The Chinese government has visited Argentina many times to cooperate with the Afghan side to improve the quality of meat in China. The INSUD Group of Argentina has developed a variety of livestock breeds suitable for Chinese feeding conditions and eating habits. For the first time in 2015, exporting embryos and sperm to China, transferring genetic technology, working to achieve better productivity and improving the development of China's animal husbandry. He said: "These three representative cooperations illustrate the importance of global agricultural cooperation."

Sigma believes that agriculture and sustainable innovation mainly depend on the three major elements of science and technology, the public sector, and enterprises. The world needs to implement efficient innovation, and it should improve the connection between science, business and government. The most important of these is the interaction between “public” and “private”. Only sustainable development plans can inspire sustainable investment. Sigman stressed that it is a very difficult goal for each country to achieve poverty eradication and food security separately. Only when countries cooperate with each other to stimulate the development of innovation, cooperation and investment can achieve this goal together.
