From June 26th to 30th, the 8th China-Eurasia Expo ("Eurasia Expo") took place in Urumqi, Xinjiang.

This year's Eurasia Expo featured four major exhibition zones covering investment cooperation, international exhibitions, special industries, and equipment manufacturing. The specialized industries zone highlighted sectors such as energy, digital technology, cultural tourism, grain and oil, green organic fruits and vegetables, premium livestock products, cotton, and textiles. The expo encompassed 14 halls, with a special exhibition rate reaching 77%.

Guangdong province was prominently represented, with over 100 companies participating and occupying an exhibition space exceeding 1,500 square meters. The Guangdong exhibition included city sections for Guangdong, Shenzhen, and Zhuhai, as well as corporate sections, showcasing key products from advanced manufacturing, smart home technologies, and traditional brands.

During the Expo, Guangdong hosted the "Guangdong Trade Nationwide" Guangdong-Xinjiang Economic and Trade Cooperation Conference. This forum facilitated the signing of 52 trade and investment cooperation projects between Guangdong and Xinjiang, totaling approximately 8.054 billion yuan. These projects spanned multiple sectors including energy, comprehensive health, cultural tourism, automotive, agricultural products, and furniture.

The conference featured 13 major agreements worth 4.141 billion yuan, covering areas such as energy, health, cultural tourism, and automotive. Among these, seven were investment projects amounting to 4.056 billion yuan, and six were trade agreements totaling 65 million yuan.

"In recent years, we have continuously promoted the sales of Xinjiang products to the south, selling high-quality products such as lamb and beef from Xinjiang to the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. Compared to the same period last year, our sales have increased by 64%," said Yang Hai, Marketing Manager of Xinjiang Agricultural Development Group Animal Husbandry Co., LTD, excitedly to reporters at the forum. He mentioned that in the future, they plan to adapt their products to the dietary habits of Guangdong residents, such as repackaging Xinjiang's large cuts of meat into smaller portions, to further enhance the reputation of Xinjiang products.

As an aiding project in Xinjiang supported by Guangdong, the Kashgar Southern Xinjiang Agricultural and Sideline Products Wholesale Market serves as a distribution center for high-quality products from the Greater Bay Area entering Xinjiang. In addition, agricultural products with distinctive "Xinjiang flavor", like onions, tomatoes, figs, new plums, and winter jujubes from this market are sold nationwide, including in Guangdong.

At the forum, the Kashgar Southern Xinjiang Agricultural and Sideline Products Wholesale Market signed an agreement to introduce Southeast Asian fruits like durian to Xinjiang. It is reported that after Guangdong began aiding the Kashgar region, southern dietary habits started integrating into local life, and the transportation and exchange of agricultural products between the two regions became more frequent. Guangdong's tropical fruits and fresh seafood have become popular among local consumers. In 2023, the market's annual transaction volume was approximately 1.2 million tons, with a transaction value of 8 billion yuan.

Xinjiang's high-quality specialty agricultural products have gained numerous fans, and Xinjiang's beautiful landscapes have also become popular travel destinations recently. In addition to promoting the production and sales connection between Guangdong and Xinjiang, the conference also witnessed Guangdong technology companies express their hope to empower Xinjiang with culture and technology.

"近年来，我们不断推动疆品南下，把来自新疆的羊肉、牛肉等优质产品卖向粤港澳大湾区。我们同比去年同期，销售额提升了64%。"交流会上，新疆农发集团牧业有限公司市场营销部经理杨海向记者激动地表示，未来，他们计划基于广东市民的饮食习惯，对产品进行改进，比如把新疆的大块肉改为小块包装等，进一步打响新疆好物的名声。

作为广东对口援疆的项目，喀什疆南农副产品批发市场是粤港澳大湾区优质产品进入新疆的一个集散地，皮牙子（洋葱）、西红柿、无花果、新梅、冬枣等"疆味"特色农产品也从该市场走向全国，走向广东。

本次交流会上，喀什疆南农副产品批发市场进行签约，计划引进榴莲等东南亚水果到新疆。据悉，广东对口帮扶喀什地区之后，南方的饮食习惯开始融入当地生活，两地农产品的运输往来更密切，广东的热带水果和生鲜海产，受到本地消费者的青睐。2023年市场年交易量约120万吨，交易额80亿元。

新疆的名优特农产品圈粉无数，而新疆美景也是最近大家的热门"打卡地"。除了推动广东和新疆两地的产销对接外，本次交流会上，来自广东的科技企业还希望以文化与科技为新疆赋能。
