European countries continue to reject Serbian products

European Union countries are massively refusing Serbian fruit-making exports, not only. The laboratory analysis of many EU states results in Serbian products having extremely high levels of pesticides, as well as of bacteria, toxic viruses. According to these lab tests consulted by AgroWeb.org, their risk rate for consumers is considered “Serioz”.

All data are officially published at the Food Safety Agency near the European Commission, which updates the results of the export control that enters European Union countries.

Through this agency, the European Commission warns member states to be cautious, prepare or take measures for strict controls at border points while publishing states that pose risks in export products.

This is Serbia's case. Referring to exactly the official data released by the European Commission, AgroWeb.org reports that it turns out this year, in at least 14 cases, Serbian products have been returned to the borders of EU countries where they would be exported or named as the case “alameter”, warning of their high level of health risk.

Mostly there are Serbian exports of apples, plums and forest fruit like strawberries, raisins and berries that have been massively rejected. Following checks conducted by the labs of Germany, England, France, Poland, Denmark, Croatia, Slovakia, Bulgaria, etc., these products have been banned at border points, refusing to enter the respective markets. According to official sources demanded by AgroWeb.org, in recent years there are 232 European alarms to products from Serbia. Look at the bottom picture for official info.

But it is not only these Serb products that have resulted in contamination. Referring to the same official source, the European Commission's Food Safety Agency, it is found that high risk posed also Serbian food exports for fish reserves. According to laboratory analysis, this product has a high presence of bacteria “Clortridium”, dangerous to consumer health.

This exporter country's proximity to Kosovo and Albania makes the issue of passing many problematic products towards Albanian markets.

What about Albania-Kosovo exports?

If you check the data for Albanian and Kosovo exports to the Food Safety Agency at the European Commission, AgroWeb.org's search is clear. Albania and Kosovo are two of the regular exporters of European Union countries with fruit-pertimes.

As in the case of Serbia and every other exporter state, Albanian and Kosovo Albanian products go through strict control at the border points of any state where they are exported, subject to all laboratory tests.

According to European Commission data, Albanian fruit products from both Albania and Kosovo meet all European Union norms to be named healthy products for European consumers.

Currently, Albanian products from Albania and Kosovo have taken an important place in European fruit-making markets, becoming the two most certified Balkan states for export of these products. /AgroWeb.org
