About this page

This page announces that Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare implemented inspection orders on Colombian coffee beans and processed products on May 1, 2017. The measure was taken after detecting chlorpyrifos, an organophosphate pesticide, exceeding the safety standard. Two violation cases involving imports by Mitsui & Co. and Marubeni Corporation are detailed, with all cargo held in storage. The pesticide residue levels, though exceeding the 0.05 ppm standard, remain within safe limits for daily consumption without health risks.
