After completing the process that includes inspection of poultry farms, Honduras has received certification from the neighboring country in order to export eggs.
From a press release issued by the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock in Honduras (SAG):
The range of exports of Honduran poultry products has been widened with the addition of eggs after Honduras was certified by El Salvador for the export of this important nutrient, which will strengthen business relationships and generate more income for the country.
The Department of Agriculture of the United States has authorized the entry of pineapples and other fresh fruits from Malaysia.
Costa Rica will have to face competition from pineapples exported from Malaysia to the U.S. market. Although initially it is expected that there will be a low volume in the market, affects could be felt in the medium and long term.
Costa Rica is not allowing the entry of potatoes from the U.S. and customs in Miami have increased controls on ornamental plants coming from Costa Rica.
It has been assumed that the increased controls on ornamental plants occurred after the State Phytosanitary Service (SFE) of Costa Rica suspended the issuance of phytosanitary requirement forms for importing U.S. potatoes.
