The Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply of Brazil has declared Acre state as a quarantine zone due to the detection of the 'Moniliophthora roreri' fungus, causing Moniliasis in cocoa and cupuaçu plants. This fungus, previously unseen in Brazil, was found in Cruzeiro do Sul. The quarantine aims to prevent the pest's spread through a ban on the transit of vegetable materials from Acre to other Brazilian states.
