The visits are part of the U.S.-China Cotton Leadership Exchange Program established by the NCC and the Chinese Cotton Association (CCA) in 2006. The visits are in accordance with a subsequent signed “Memorandum of Understanding” between the NCC and CCA that promised cooperation between the countries' cotton industries.
Among stops on the 2008 U.S. delegation tour will be a genetic engineering laboratory at the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences in Beijing; seed field trials and a meeting with farmers in Hebei Province; the Huafu Yarn Mill and a seminar with merchants and textile manufacturers in Zhejing Province; and the Wuxi No. 1 Cotton Mill and warehouses/consignment stocks in Jiangsu Province.
The tour was coordinated by Cotton Council International, the NCC's export promotions arm.
