Fourth, China's experience in transitioning from an agriculture-based country to an industrialized one, particularly in leveraging agricultural development for large-scale poverty reduction and rapid socioeconomic transformation, is highly relevant to Africa's current development stage.

China's experience in maize, rice, vegetables, fruits and animal husbandry, based on small holder farmer development models, is highly relevant for many African countries, highlighting the unique value of China-Africa agricultural cooperation.
