Jakarta (Antara Bali) - The United States soybean producers met with their Indonesian importers during an event here last Thursday, according to the US Embassy in Jakarta on Saturday.
The embassy said on its official web site that US Embassy Chargé d'Affaires Kristen Bauer delivered welcome remarks at an April 4 event that included government representatives, importers, local industry associations, and visiting members of the US Soybean Export Council.
The US Soybean Export Council represents soybean producers, shippers, and merchandisers.
The event gave visiting Council members the opportunity discuss with Indonesian public and private sector stakeholders commodity markets and the availability and quality of U.S. soybeans.
Agriculture is a key component of the US-Indonesia bilateral trade, and Indonesia is the 3rd-largest market in the world for US soybean exports. (*/DWA)
