Iran-Austrian cooperation in dairy possible

There is ample potential for cooperation in dairy production between Austria and Iran, the Austrian Commercial Attache in Iran reported over the weekend.

Both countries produce various kinds of milk and dairy goods, said Karl Kartleb from the attache. The scope for technology transfer from Austria to Iran is also huge, he added.

Iran is also Austria's most important trade partner in the Middle East, with trade totally some 360 million euros last year.
