Chinese food safety experts have given their approval to the quality of imported Russian wheat. The Deputy Chief for Food Safety Supervision Ren Zhengxiao says it could lead to more imports. Russia wants to get approval for other grain exports to China this year. The countries signed protocols on the food safety regulations for imports of Russian agricultural products including wheat, corn, rice, soy and rapeseed in December. Beijing is allowing imports of wheat grown in the Altai, Krasnoyarsk, Novosibirsk and Omsk regions.
