Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>South Sudan\u2019s deputy foreign minister Deng Dau has traveled to the Asian country of Bangladesh and expressed his country\u2019s agreement to lease land for agricultural purposes, according to the Bangladeshi media.<\/p>\n

According to the media reports, Dau placed the proposal in a meeting with Bangladeshi Agriculture Minister Muhammad Abdur Razzaque in Dhaka this afternoon.<\/p>\n

Deng also sought Bangladesh\u2019s cooperation in agricultural production, processing and marketing in the central African country, according to a press release of the agriculture ministry.<\/p>\n

Speaking in the meeting, Razzaque said Bangladesh will send an expert team to identify specific areas of cooperation in this regard.<\/p>\n

The team will comprise various experts including agricultural researchers, scientists and workers, he said.<\/p>\n

After the meeting, Razzaque told reporters that South Sudan has more than six lakh square kilometres of land.<\/p>\n

\u201cMost of its land is fallow, non-cultivated. There is a possibility of producing many crops by bringing this huge area under agricultural production,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The issue of cultivating crops on leased land of the South Sudan government has been under discussion for a long time, he said.<\/p>\n

Many private entrepreneurs in Bangladesh have also expressed interest and the government is also considering the matter seriously, he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will send an expert team to see what crops can be grown in South Sudan and how the land can be brought under cultivation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Specific initiatives will be taken on the basis of the report of the expert team. \u201cI would like to invite those who want to invest in the private sector. The government will take initiative in these matters including sending workers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
