This is why Italy is supporting with different projects in the agro-industry project for transferring technology and to help develop this kind of job creation, and that could help Ethiopia to grow from the agricultural point of view. Today, it is rice, wheat, and vegetables all in high standard level even coffee. So it is very important you continue on this plan and we will continue to support Ethiopia on these matters,\u201d the Ambassador elaborated.<\/p>\n<p>He also lauded Ethiopia\u2019s success in availing affordable energy to industrial projects in a very short time stressing the need for the country to continue on this pattern as there is conducive foundation in this regard.<\/p>\n<p>With all the dams that Ethiopia has built in a very short period of time, low cost energy, it can develop agro-industrial project with other partners like Italy, he added.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, Ethiopia can even be exporters of rice, vegetables, and fruit instead of importing like wheat like it was once.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo now you can try to export as well in the region and nearby of Ethiopia; it is very good for you and I think it could help in job creation and many sectors. What we are working is to transfer technology and know-how\u201d the ambassador stated.<\/p>\n<p>Ethiopia and Italy have long-standing bilateral relations that go back over a century.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ethiopia\">Ethiopia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ethiopia.
