EU Gives Indian Grapes A Clean Chit

There is some good news for the Indian agro sector as months after Indian Mangoes were cleared for export to Japan, the EU has given a clean chit to Indian grapes being exported to UK and other European countries.

Pesticides Safety Directorate (PSD), an agency of the UK Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, has come out with a finding which says none of the retail samples of Indian grapes consignment tested for pesticide residue had been detected with level above the norms set by the European Union.
