Taiwan\u2019s Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has recalled fresh American cherries <\/u><\/a>by four U.S. suppliers after they failed the test for unauthorized pesticides. The move has made Taiwan <\/u><\/a>enforce a temporary one-month suspension of imports of the American stone fruit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cherries were among 20 other food imports from the U.S. that did not go past lab examination. They contained slightly more than the limit of 0.01 parts in a million of mefentrifluconazole,<\/u><\/a> an anti-fungal pesticide. Banana sauce from neighboring Philippines and Italian cheese were among the other items on the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since March, 2023, FDA has discovered 33 shipments of American cherries exceeding the chemical limit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The vice chairman of FDA, Lin Chin-Fu, has since notified the American consul in Taipei of the one-month suspension. The ban will run from August 21 to September 20, 2023. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

U.S cherries are a hit in the Asian market and have recorded an impressive run this year. In Vietnam, the retail prices of U.S. imported cherries fell by nearly 50% to\u00a0$10.53 per kg<\/u><\/a>\u00a0in week 1 of August, 2023. Vietnamese consumers celebrated the drop by uptick shopping of sweet cherries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cherry Outlook within the U.S.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On June 21, 2023, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) recalled frozen cherries <\/u><\/a>from a producer after recording potential Listeria contamination. Listeria is a bacterium that passes from contaminated food to humans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In spite of this, American cherries are still a top produce that is poised to expand in production terms by 60%<\/u><\/a> in 2023. The total output will be 371,000 metric tons, three-quarters of which coming from Washington state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Washington cherries were selling on August 24 in the Boston terminal at\u00a0$90\u00a0<\/u><\/a>per 18-pound (ib) bags or 10.97 a kg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The current average price range of U.S. cherries within the country is between $5 and $12.<\/u><\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This median price was reflected in New York in the week ending August 10, 2023 where the least-priced 18-ib carton cost\u00a0$45\u00a0<\/u><\/a>or $5.5 per kg. Detroit and Los Angeles recorded $8.25 and $14.39 per kg respectively for 18-ib cartons of cherries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether the Taiwan ban will affect prices of American cherries at home and abroad will reflect in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
