Laos is set to export over 1.23 million boxes of citrus fruits, including oranges, grapefruit, and lemons, to China in 2022, valued at $50 million. The deal, which is expected to be implemented as early as next year, was finalized after a memorandum of understanding was signed between Laos Minister of Agriculture and Forestry Phet Phomphiphak and a senior Chinese customs official, Ni Yuefeng.
