Primary Industries Minister Nathan Guy will attend agricultural conferences on a four-day trip to Australia and China.

Today Guy travels to Beijing to attend and speak at the Development Research Centre (DRC)'s Food Security and Food Safety Strategy Summit.

"The DRC is a government policy, research and consulting institution that focuses on China's economic and social development," says Guy.

"This conference is a good opportunity to build closer links with China and outline how our two countries can work together on issues of food and agricultural policy."

On Monday he visits Hong Kong to meet with New Zealand companies, and a meeting with the Hong Kong Jockey Club. New Zealand race horses are one of our most important exports to Hong Kong with exports worth $29 million in the most recent year.

He departed yesterday and is back in New Zealand on Tuesday 17 November.
