Uzbekistan has received approval to export lemons to China, adding to the country's citrus fruit exports to around 15 countries. The approval follows a phytosanitary protocol signed last year with China. Around 10 packaging enterprises and over 100 gardens and greenhouses in Uzbekistan meet the Chinese Phytosanitary Service's requirements. Since 2022, around 3,000 tons of lemons have been exported. Negotiations with China are ongoing for the export of other agricultural products grown in Uzbekistan.
