China's agricultural exports totaled nearly 600 billion yuan (about 84 billion U.S. dollars) in the first 10 months of this year, covering 838 product categories and 223 countries and regions, according to customs data.

The growth in export scale, product diversity and global market presence has become a crucial pillar in stabilizing China's foreign trade and supporting people's livelihoods.

In the Yellow River basin, one of China's key agricultural production areas, the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region has achieved for the first time milestone exports of dairy protein, fresh vegetables and Zhongwei selenium-rich melons to Central Asia, the Middle East and other international markets.

The basin's total agricultural exports reached 178.1 billion yuan from January to October this year, making outbound farm products a key driver of regional trade growth.

In Ningxia's capital Yinchuan City, nearly 100 representatives from over 70 agri-food companies recently completed specialized training on export compliance and international market access requirements.

"To expand our export share and diversify markets, companies must understand and comply with the technical regulations and standards of their target markets. Quality control must start at the beginning, as this forms the foundation for successfully entering international markets," said Shang Guimin, deputy commissioner of Yinchuan Customs.

"This year, our products have entered emerging markets in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and South America for the first time," said Wang Fei, manager of a goji berry export company in Ningxia.

To address varying export challenges and remove logistical bottlenecks, China's customs authorities have launched nationwide training programs designed to create efficient pathways for agricultural products entering global markets.
