A delegation from China has met with Bolivian officials to discuss the export of various products to the Chinese market, including bovine by-products, leather, meat, and cotton fiber. During the visit, a protocol on phytosanitary requirements for the export of Bolivian sorghum to China was signed. Bolivia currently produces about 800,000 tons of sorghum annually, with 8,000 tons exported. The country is aiming to target the BRICS markets as they have large purchasing powers and strict export requirements.
