LJUBLJANA, July 4 (Xinhua) -- Slovenia has been encouraged to export its farm products to the Chinese market by visiting Chinese deputy agriculture minister
Chen Xiaohua when he met with his corresponding Slovenian host here on Monday.
Slovenian deputy prime minister and agriculture minister Dejan Zidan held talks with Chen and his delegation to discuss further exports of fish, poultry,
pork and honey to China, after the Chinese market opened for Slovenian dairy
producers with granted permits weeks earlier.
The Chinese market is currently open for producers of foodstuffs which require no special permits or agreements for exportation, for example, hops.
However, products of animal origin require a permit, something Zidan said both
countries were working on to speed up the procedures.
Chen expressed his hope high-quality Chinese agricultural products would be exported to Slovenia, but said more analysis of the Slovenian market had to be
made beforehand.
Slovenian dairies Ljubljanske mlekarne, Mlekarna Celeia, Pomurske mlekarne and Mlekarna Planika were issued approval to register as exporters by the
Chinese authorities at the beginning of June, the visiting Chinese officials
confirmed.
After his talk with the Chinese delegation, Zidan told the press the economic cooperation between the two countries was growing "steadily", using the export
of Slovenian hops to China as an example of this year's success story.
"In the first three months, almost a million euros-worth of hops was exported, compared to about 600,000 euros for the whole of 2015," he added.
Earlier on Monday, he co-chaired the first session of an intergovernmental task force for cooperation in agriculture along with agriculture ministry state
secretary Tanja Strnisa.
Chen maintained that the cooperation had already proven successful and looked forward to much potential in Slovenia, mostly because the country offered
high-quality "green products." Enditem

Adidas Superstar Pas Cher , Nov. 25 (Xinhua) -- The Nikkei stock index added 0.29 percent
Tuesday following a three-day weekend, with the market buoyed by a record close
on Wall Street, the yen's weakness and hopes for more global stimulus measures.
The Nikkei 225 index added 50.11 points to close at 17,407.62, while the broader Topix index of all first-section issues gained 0. 64 percent, or 8.97
points, to close at 1,409.15.
Brokers here said that the effects of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe 's dissolving of the lower house of parliament and calling a snap election pegged for Dec. 14,
had largely been factored in to market players' positions, and that pre-election
times, historically, are usually a boon for the stock market here as parties
tend to unroll new economic policies and firm up stimulus measures.
In addition, they said that trading got off to a good start on the back of Wall Street's closing highs and the yen's retreat versus its U.S. counterpart,
as well as being supported by hopes for new stimulus measures from the eurozone
and China.
Mario Draghi, the European Central Bank president, strongly hinted on Friday that he and his colleagues were preparing a new round of powerful monetary
stimulus to kickstart the spluttering eurozone economy and his remarks sent
European stocks and bonds higher thereafter.
"The European Central Bank would do what we must to raise inflation and expectations as fast as possible," Draghi was quoted as telling a banking
conference in Frankfurt.
The ECB also said Friday that it has started buying asset- backed securities, a move widely believed to be aimed at creating a more accommodative environment
for banks to borrow and encourage them to lend to businesses so they can invest
and help shore up the economy.
Local brokers here also said that the Chinese central bank lifted global markets by announcing its first interest rate cut in two years.
Regarding the ECB moves, Koji Toda, chief fund manager at Resona Bank Ltd., said "Ample liquidity supports the Japanese stock market. The market continues
to be resilient. Europe shows strong signs for monetary easing like Japan".
In twine with China's latest moves, Ayako Terada from Nomura Securities Co.'s investment research department added that, " Overall market sentiment is not bad
thanks to China's surprise rate cut and growing speculation for additional
monetary easing by the European Central Bank."
In currency markets, the U.S. dollar was at 117.93 yen, dropping from the 118.25 yen-mark logged in New York on Monday.
This gives exporters a boost as their earnings outlooks improve on a weaker yen as profits are augmented when repatriated from overseas back into the
domestic currency.
Toyota accelerated 1.42 percent to 7,190 yen, while smaller rival Honda advanced 1.4 percent to 3,741 yen.
Consumer electronics behemoth Sony leapt 6.12 percent to 2,582 yen, after Chief Financial Officer Kenichiro Yoshida's laid out plans to restructure the
company and energize sales of its popular PlayStation 4 games console. Following
this, Jefferies Group raised its share price forecast target by 29 percent to
3,520 yen.
China-linked issues found traction Tuesday, with Hitachi Construction Machinery jumping 4.8 percent to 2,573 yen, while Komatsu, an industrial
machinery maker, climbed 3.6 percent to close at 2,800 yen.
Dai-ichi Life Insurance was another notable gainer, adding 2.6 percent to 1,747 yen, following a related index posting the biggest gain among 33 industry
groups in the Topix.
Meanwhile, Takata surged 16.2 percent to 1,455 yen, as the embattled auto parts maker, accused of supplying faulty airbags connected to the fatalities of
numerous people and the injuries of hundreds more, takes on U.S. Senators by
willingly handing over 14 years of data on the alleged faulty airbags.
Trading volume on Tuesday increased to 2.71 billion shares on .
