Jamaica to resume shipment of mangoes to US in May

[Jangle]

Come next month, Jamaica will resume exports of mangoes to the United States (US).

This, according to Industry, Commerce, Agriculture, and Fisheries Minister, Audley Shaw, is being facilitated through the Mango Irradiation Programme.

Under the programme, the Ministry works with the United States Department of Agriculture-Animal and Plant Health Inspection Services (USDA-APHIS) to ensure compliance with the US import requirements, which stipulate that mangoes be treated by irradiation or hot water emersion, prior to being brought in.
