Tridge summary

The Agricultural and Food Quality Inspection (IJHARS) in Poland conducted inspections at agricultural collection points following last year's flood, aiming to ensure that produce contaminated by the flood water did not reach consumers. The inspections involved visiting 638 places and checking the quality of grains and rapeseed, focusing on 33 facilities that stored these products.
