The Ministry of Agrarian Development and Irrigation of Peru (MIDAGRI) announced upcoming access to new agricultural products to international markets, especially China, during APEC Peru 2024. A agreement on phytosanitary protocols will be signed to export chestnuts, pecans, and frozen fruit (avocado, mango, blueberry) to China, capitalizing on the growing market and demand. With China's population of over 1.4 billion and increasing purchasing power, it presents a significant opportunity for Peruvian agricultural products.
