Pointing to the high volume of urea production in Iran, Mohammad Ali Nikbakht said that his ministry is ready to import phosphate fertilizer from this Eastern European country in exchange for exporting urea fertilizer.
In his meeting with Vladimir Orlic, the president of the National Assembly of Serbia and accompanying delegation in Tehran, Iran’s agriculture minister stated that the two countries have established amicable relations.
“We are trying to expand relations in economic areas, especially in the agricultural sector,” he stated.
The Iranian government emphasizes the development of ties with friendly countries, he said.
“We have good experience in various agricultural fields that we can share experience with Serbia,” Nikbakht added.

The president of the National Assembly of Serbia, for his part, said that relations between the two countries have been based on mutual respect.
