Western states stage China mission

Agriculture officials from 11 Western states including Utah plan to visit China next week to dedicate a center they hope will sell more high-value goods such as steak and wine to an expanding Chinese middle class.

Katy Coba, director of the Oregon Agriculture Department, said Wednesday the 20-acre center in the coastal city Zhuhai will house Chinese companies dealing in perishable food, testing laboratories, and display space and warehouse capacity for American goods.

She says the center also can test Chinese exports.

The Oregon department said Wednesday the delegation will include Coba’s counterparts from Utah, Washington, California, Montana, Wyoming and Colorado – and marketing officials from Idaho, Nevada, Arizona and Hawaii.
