Farmers, transporters and exporters who fail to comply with new fresh produce procedures risk being excluded from the export market following a new guide to ensure compliance with sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) requirements at the regional and international levels.
The National Horticulture Taskforce (NHT) has launched Good Agricultural Practice Guides for avocados, beans and peas that compel exporters to comply with the standards demanded by destination markets to avoid bans.
