This forum was launched to establish a collaborative relationship in agricultural research and related fields among Korea, China and Japan as part of their joint commitment to foster mutually beneficial research and development in the Northeast Asian countries. As a major activity of FANEA in 2007, the Korea Rural Economic Institute has participated in the 5th FANEA International Symposium in Beijing, China.
