Trade Competitiveness Intelligence -- Agbiz/DAFF conference

Are you aware that at the end of this century, Asia and Africa will make up 81% of the planet's population of 10.1 billion?

To look at possible scenarios like the above, the Agricultural Business Chamber (Agbiz) and the Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (DAFF) hosted a conference on trade competitiveness last week in Pretoria.

Aims of the conference included

• building strategies to create investment through agricultural trade development
