ISLAMABAD, Nov. 25 (Xinhua) --The Protocol of Inspection and Quarantine Requirements for the Export of Onion from Pakistan to China was signed during a ceremony on Tuesday.
Speaking at the ceremony, Pakistan's Federal Minister for National Food Security and Research Syed Fakhar Imam said that his country's onion export will get a boost when the Chinese market also becomes its export destination.
