Nairobi, Kenya, June 24, 2025 – The 2025 China-Africa Agricultural Science and Technology Industry Cooperation Forum commenced grandly today in Nairobi, Kenya
Co-hosted by authoritative institutions including the Beijing Jingwa Agricultural Science and Technology Innovation Center, the Africa Green Alliance, and the China Agricultural University Global Academy for Food Economics and Policy, the forum attracted nearly 200 representatives from Chinese and African government departments, international organizations, research institutes, industry associations, and enterprises. Its aim is to establish a high-level platform for China-Africa agricultural policy dialogue, technology exchange, and industrial investment, promoting the deep integration of China's advanced agricultural technologies with Africa's abundant resources to inject momentum into Africa's sustainable agricultural development. Sinder Tech, as the only invited Chinese animal health company, participated in the forum with Dr. Tianyao Yang, Technical Director, and Mr. Yang Yang, Head of East Africa Business. Dr. Yang delivered a presentation sharing China's experience in poultry health management and sustainable production, exploring cooperation opportunities with representatives from various sectors across China and Africa.
During the main forum session titled "Chinese Perspective: Chinese Technology Empowering African Agricultural Transformation," Dr. Yang, as a featured speaker, addressed the core topic "Challenges and Cooperation in Sustainable Poultry Production." Drawing on progress towards the UN's 2030 Sustainable Development Goals , he emphasized that accelerating the resolution of global issues like poverty and hunger requires the rapid development of sustainable agriculture, particularly the poultry industry. Poultry meat, characterized by its high efficiency, affordability, health benefits, and widespread global consumption, can meet the sharply rising demand for animal protein in developing countries across Asia and Africa, directly contributing to achieving the SDGs. Dr. Yang highlighted that major factors currently hindering high-efficiency development in the livestock industry include disease and feeding management. China's rapid development in the poultry sector offers valuable lessons for Africa. Taking Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR) and Livability – two core indicators of production efficiency – as examples, China has achieved average broiler FCRs of 1.45-1.55 and average livability rates above 94% through equipment innovation, refined management, and effective disease control. This contrasts with the current average levels in Africa (FCR 1.75-1.85, Livability <90%). He stressed that optimizing disease prevention, control, and feeding management to improve FCR and livability not only significantly boosts farming efficiency and profitability but also effectively conserves grain resources. This has direct significance for ensuring global food security and achieving sustainable agricultural development. As a leading animal health company in China, Shinve Tech possesses deep practical experience in precision disease prevention and control within the Chinese market. The company is already bringing its technical services and superior product solutions to African countries like Egypt and Nigeria and is eager to engage in deep cooperation with local institutions and clients, including those in Kenya, to jointly tackle challenges in the livestock industry and rapidly enhance production performance.
In the afternoon's China-Africa Roundtable Dialogue on Sustainable Livestock Development, Dr. Yang's insights provided African counterparts with valuable Chinese experiences and technical approaches. Addressing the current prevalence of small-scale, individual farmers in Africa, he emphasized prioritizing disease control. Implementing efficient vaccine immunization programs and providing training in feeding management technologies can rapidly improve farming outcomes while simultaneously helping reduce antibiotic use and drug residue issues. He argued that building a precision disease prevention and control system requires the involvement of research institutions and large enterprises at this stage. Through precise epidemiological investigations to understand disease patterns and strain variations, product solutions can be adjusted and optimized for more effective disease control. Simply importing products from other countries is unlikely to fully solve Africa's unique challenges. Sinder Tech is committed to combining its accumulated experience and technology from China with Africa's local needs. The company aims to collaborate with relevant local institutions and enterprises to provide African farmers with comprehensive technical services, including feeding management, on-site veterinary support, and laboratory testing, thereby contributing to China-Africa cooperation in poultry health. During networking sessions, Dr. Yang also engaged in in-depth discussions with representatives from the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), Egerton University Kenya, South Eastern Kenya University, UN agricultural experts, and various Chinese and African companies.
Prior to the forum (June 23rd), Dr. Yang actively participated in the "Livestock Industry Enterprise Visit" organized by the hosts. The delegation visited KenMeat (Kenya Meat Commission), one of the largest modern meat export enterprises in Eastern and Central Africa. This visit aimed to gain a deep understanding of core segments of Africa's livestock industry chain, including breeding, slaughtering, processing, logistics, and sales operations. It provided firsthand insight into local market demands and development potential, laying the groundwork for identifying precise cooperation entry points and evaluating future market opportunities.
Dr. Yang’s deep involvement in the China-Africa Agricultural Science and Technology Industry Cooperation Forum – sharing professional insights on the main stage and conducting on-the-ground investigations into African industry operations – fully demonstrates Sinder Tech's commitment to actively integrating into international agricultural cooperation. The company is dedicated to serving global markets with China's mature animal health technologies and experience. Particularly under the globally significant themes of food security and sustainable agricultural development, Sinder Tech's professional capabilities and practical achievements in livestock health and precision disease prevention and control are gaining increasing attention and recognition from international peers. This forum has established a vital communication bridge for Sinder Tech to further expand its presence in the African market and deepen mutually beneficial cooperation between China and Africa in the livestock sector, especially in animal health.
Sinder Tech will continue to uphold its core philosophy of "Unswervingly Increasing Customer Value," partnering with global stakeholders to jointly address the challenges of sustainable agricultural development.
