About this page

This page is a press release from the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare dated December 6, 2016, announcing inspection orders for imported Chinese immature peas and their processed products. Quarantine inspections detected diniconazole (a triazole fungicide) exceeding regulatory limits, triggering mandatory testing of all imported lots. Three violations were reported involving Chinese snap peas and sugar snap peas from different importers. Although residue levels pose no health risk, strict enforcement measures were implemented under the Food Sanitation Law. Import data shows increased violation detection in fiscal 2016.
