The discussions focused on processing and exporting agricultural products, ensuring food security and expanding international cooperation. As part of the visit, Abduzuhurov met with Bahromjon Rajab Ahmadzoda, Tajikistan’s deputy agriculture minister, to review the progress of joint projects in cotton production, grain farming and other agricultural areas.
The sides agreed to accelerate the implementation of existing projects, improve coordination and strengthen direct working contacts between relevant organizations in the two countries.
