The article reports that the Indonesian Quarantine Office has lifted the restrictions on US apples, allowing their export to Indonesia to resume. This follows a suspension on 16 April when apples were excluded from the UFFPO list, leading to a significant drop in shipments from the US to Indonesia. The Washington apple industry, in particular, had seen a decrease in shipments from around 562,000 cartons to 3,400 cartons. The resumption of exports is welcomed by the industry, with plans to promote US apples, especially varieties like Envy and Gala, in the Indonesian market. The article also highlights that the suspension had led importers to try out alternative supply sources, including New Zealand and Turkey.
