Description

On March 21 2017, the Chinese Ambassador to Sierra Leone, Wu Peng, and Sierra Leone's Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Food Security, Monty Jones, attended the hand-over ceremony held by the China-Aid Agricultural Technical Team which granted Sierra Leone fertilizers and vegetable seeds to farmers at Ogoo Farm west of Freetown. Ambassador Wu and Minister Jones reportedly signed the consignment list before the distribution. There have been multiple phases of the agricultural technical cooperation agreement, recorded in #62530, #62529, #62531. It is unclear which agreement this donation is related to.
