About this page

This page announces inspection orders on sesame seeds and their processed products from Paraguay implemented by Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. Carbaryl, a carbamate-class insecticide, was detected exceeding safety standards in monitoring tests, prompting mandatory full-lot inspections under the Food Sanitation Law. Three violation cases were reported, affecting approximately 363 tons of cargo. The page explains that carbaryl has established acceptable daily intake levels and poses no health risk at typical consumption rates. Violating shipments have been either returned or placed under custody.
