Opening the discussion, Ibrahim Abdurakhmonov emphasized that Uzbek-Italian cooperation shows stable development, particularly in the agricultural sector. Special attention was given to the systematically organized programs for experience exchange and student exchanges in agricultural education, which enhance the qualifications of Uzbek specialists.

The parties agreed to expand the exchange of experiences in combating climate change and to send Uzbek specialists for training in Italy. This will allow them to study advanced agricultural standards, which can then be implemented in Uzbekistan.

Plans for the implementation of joint projects aimed at applying Italian innovations and technologies in Uzbekistan's agricultural sector were also discussed.

In conclusion of the meeting, which took place in a warm and friendly atmosphere, Minister Ibrohim Abdurakhmonov noted the contribution of Marco Farci, a member of the Italy-Uzbekistan Chamber of Commerce, to the development of agriculture and awarded him the honorary badge "Kishlok xojaligi fidoyisi".
