The Turkish Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry has determined to increase the frequency of checks on shipments to the EU. For lemons, it is expected to increase from 20% to 30% and for grapefruit from 10% to 30% due to the high rate of non-compliance with pesticide residues, followed by increasing frequency of checks in dried thyme and cumin seeds from 10% to 20% due to contamination with pyrrolizidine alkaloids. Additionally, this control measure also includes the determination of the control of sesame seeds' frequency as 20% in Annex I of the Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1793 cause of the risks to human health due to a possible Salmonella contamination as well as an increase of the frequency of controls for dried figs and products obtained from dried figs from 20% to 30% due to aflatoxin contamination.
