Vietnam is set to export fresh grapefruits to Australia, following the Australian Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry's (DAFF) final report confirming the fruit's eligibility under specific biosafety requirements. The report outlines necessary pest control measures and quarantine procedures, addressing concerns related to 19 pests, including the Asian citrus psyllid, oriental fruit fly, mealybugs, and red spider mites. Australian requirements include maintaining pest-free areas, irradiation or Methyl bromide treatment, and visual inspections. For citrus canker, a systemic approach with integrated controls from cultivation to post-harvest is demanded. This development is expected to boost the Vietnamese grapefruit industry, which has seen a doubling of cultivation area in the past five years, reaching over 100,000 hectares. Despite the progress, Vietnamese grapefruit exports remain modest at 5,000 tons per year due to technical standards and post-harvest technology constraints. Once the import conditions are officially published, it will mark a significant achievement in market access and demonstrate Vietnam's capability to meet international biosafety standards, potentially leading to increased export opportunities.
