Taiwan fruit debacle angers growers
13 Jan 2006
The Taiwanese government announced new anti-fruitfly measures last April but the Australian government still has not concluded a new agreement with Taiwan, leaving fruit growers with an oversupply of white flesh nectarines and other stone fruit. A government source in Taipei said the Australian government’s draft protocol lacked scientific detail. An Australian Department of Agriculture spokesperson denied work on the agreement had begun only at the last minute.
