    According to foreign media reports on June 9, yesterday, the International Rubber Research Group (IRSG) 2021 World Rubber Summit kicked off in Abidjan
    .
    The three-day conference has the theme of "Facing the Future: Inclusiveness, Sustainability and Growth under the New Normal"
    .


    At the opening ceremony of the summit, the Prime Minister of Côte d’Ivoire, Patrick Achi, stated that Côte d’Ivoire will achieve a 100% processing rate of primary rubber by 2025 and develop secondary processing at the same time
    .
    This is a new battle that the country must fight after investing heavily in production.
    In 2020, the country's rubber production has increased to nearly one million tons, accounting for 80% of Africa's production and nearly 7.
    5% of the world's production
    .
    However, as a rubber industry with a global annual turnover of nearly 350 billion U.
    S.
    dollars, Côte d’Ivoire only accounts for 0.
    5%, because more than 85% of the industry’s value is not found in agricultural production, but in rubber processing and sales.
    , So we must vigorously develop the rubber secondary processing industry
    .


    He added that Côte d’Ivoire, as the largest rubber producer in Africa and the fourth largest in the world, plans to double its rubber production to 2 million tons by 2025
