Lao agribusiness operators face problems exporting to China
Agribusiness operators in Phongsaly province are struggling for trade after Chinese authorities banned the import of some agricultural produce.
Commercial crops including green tea and sweetcorn being traded by Lao entrepreneurs in the province cannot be exported to China, the provincial Green Tea Processing Factory Director, Mr Khamphan Jungtingyong told Vientiane Times on 28 October.
All the different suppliers are trying to sell their products in the domestic market but there is still a surplus, he said.
