APHIS Proposes to Allow Imports of Cape Gooseberry From Ecuador

The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service is proposing to allow imports of fresh cape gooseberry fruit from Ecuador, it said in a proposed rule. Shipments would have to come from pest-free places of production and be put in labeled boxes prior to shipping. Gooseberry that does not meet these conditions would still be able to be imported but would be subject to treatment. Comments on the proposed rule are due June 19.
