ArmInfo. On October 18, a meeting of the Ministers of Agriculture of the EAEU countries will be  held in Yerevan.

This was announced on September 30 by the Minister of Industry and Agro-Industrial Complex of the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) Gohar Barseghyan during a panel discussion on the  topic: "Infrastructure and logistics in agriculture: modern  challenges and solutions" within the framework of the Eurasian Forum  in Yerevan. She said that the parties will discuss the issue of  introducing common digital platforms in order to expand the  capabilities of member states to exchange information and access to  unified reference books.

"Armenia is chairing the Union this year, and this topic will be  discussed in more depth at the meeting of the five ministers of  agriculture. I very much hope that we will soon present a faster  solution for consideration by the Union bodies. Our joint work on the  implementation of these measures will contribute to the creation of  continuous supply chains, reducing transaction costs for producers,  increasing the competitiveness of products both within the Union and  in third-country markets," the EEC Minister noted. 

In conclusion, Barseghyan emphasized that the EEC's efforts are aimed  at improving the well-being of citizens. In this regard, she  expressed hope that together the EAEU countries will be able to  achieve more tangible results in sensitive areas of the integration  agenda, since citizens and businesses expect specific results.
