Chinese agri-tech helps Portuguese-speaking countries in Africa prosper

It has been only 21 months since China and Sao Tome and Principe resumed diplomatic relations, but the agrarian country in the Gulf of Guinea has already seen significant changes.

Thanks to the newly introduced cultivation technology from China, the output of maize there went up nearly 70 percent per hectare. New strains of Chinese cabbage, cucumber and tomato are growing larger than previous strains, and there are fewer parasites on goats that underwent the Chinese sterilization process.

These are just a few of the achievements Chinese agricultural technology has yielded in the country.
