Deputy agriculture ministers of Iran and Turkey met in Tehran recently to discuss ways of expanding agricultural relations between the two countries, the portal of the Iranian Agriculture Ministry reported.

Speaking in the meeting, Iranian Deputy Agriculture Minister Alireza Mohajer enumerated the cultural and religious commonalities between the two nations of Iran and Turkey and emphasized the need for the promotion of economic cooperation between the two countries, especially in the field of agriculture.

He pointed to the cooperation based on the climatic conditions of the two countries as an important factor in meeting the needs of the two sides in different seasons and said: “with this method, part of the summer crops can be produced in the open farms [of the other country] without the need for excessive energy costs in greenhouse cultivation.”

The Turkish official, for his part, considered it necessary to establish cooperation based on climatic conditions and changes and said: "Countries alone cannot do anything to fight climate crises, and we need international cooperation and partnership, especially with our neighbors."
