Chinese Government provides RMB 23 million grant for China-South Africa Agricultural Technology Demonstration Center Technical Cooperation Project (linked to Project ID #31189)

In 2013, China’s Ministry of Commerce reportedly committed an RMB 23 million grant to the Government of South Africa for China-South Africa Agricultural Technology Demonstration Center Technical Cooperation Project. The purpose of this project is to provide technical assistance in support of a newly-constructed China-South Africa Agricultural Technology Demonstration Center. The grant supports the operation of the technical cooperation stage, the purchase of necessary equipment and instruments, as well as a team of management and technical experts to cooperate with the South African side to manage and form an office training area. This project reached the implementation stage, but its precise start and end dates are unknown. It was expected to be completed in January of 2017, with the potential for a third stage. The Chinese Government provided a separate RMB 30 million grant for the construction of the center (Project #31189).
