The government of Japan will lift phytosanitary barriers imposed on Peruvian mangoes, towards the end of 2009. according to Peru’s National Agrarian Health Service (Senasa). "This will allow us to enter a market with a high demand," said Americo Florez, Senasa's, head.
Last January, a Japanese technical mission visited Peru and validated the effectiveness of hydrothermal treatment of mango fruits to prevent fruit fly infestation. The first campaign to benefit will take place in 2009-2010, since mango season in Peru starts in December.
