You may soon get high - quality(高质量的) milk and sausages(香肠) without spending too much money.
During Chinese President Xi's state visit to France, the two countries put out a joint statement on agricultural exchanges and cooperation(农业交流与合作的联合声明) on May 6. It hopes to speed up the journey “from French farm to Chinese dining table”.
Since 2012, the French company Lact'Union Group has been producing high - quality milk and selling it to China. The company's CEO Alexandre Zeitlin told People's Daily that China is one of the “most valuable markets”.
To ensure(保证) product quality, the companies work closely with local farmers. The farmers keep records for each of their cows. Cows are milked by a machine that also cleans them. The milk is then heated up at the factory to kill germs(细菌), making it safe to drink.
It is then sent to Shanghai and Zhejiang. The factory also started making small milk packages(包装) popular with Chinese buyers.
The amount of sausages Sacor, a French company, exported to China grew from 10 tons in 2019 to 60 tons in 2023. With the new agreement, Tournois, general manager of Sacor, hopes to introduce more French agricultural products to the Chinese market. One Chinese government officer told People's Daily, “We all agree that the trade protectionism (保护主义) is the wrong choice(选择). This joint statement will make a win - win(双赢) on both sides.”
