Houman Fathi, the head of Iranian Agricultural Jihad Ministrys department for international affairs, described cooperation in the production of crops such as wheat and oilseeds as significant.
Fathi told a trade delegation from Kazakhstan in Tehran that those Kazakh companies which cooperate with Iran on this will be more successful in business, Tasnim news agency reported Wednesday.
He also asked the delegation to step up such efforts for the export of Iranian produce so as a good trade balance emerges between the two countries.

He announced this during a visit to Kazakhstan by Irans Minister of Agricultural Jihad Mahmoud Hojjat.
