Agricultural training cooperation links China, Africa

Tonny Maraga Nyong'A is looking forward to bringing what he has learned in China back to his motherland of Kenya, Africa, to help with food security.

In Kenya, farmers mainly grow corn, wheat and rice, but barely manage to feed themselves because of insufficient human resources and technology, and the negative influences of climate and insects. Half of the grain in Kenya is imported, he said.

"This is the reason I chose to study in China," Nyong'A said. "I want to learn advanced agricultural technology and then return to Kenya to make contributions to our country's agricultural development."
