Description

The presence of Drosophila suzukii has been reported in the country as a result of activities conducted within the framework of the Agricultural and Forestry Phytosanitary Surveillance Programme of the Agriculture and Livestock Service. This pest has therefore been removed from the list of quarantine pests not found in Chile. Consequently, and with a view to eliminating Drosophila suzukii, it is necessary to update the phytosanitary requirements for fresh strawberries (Fragaria spp.) from the United States of America. Chile therefore notifies the entry into force of the following Resolution, which will be published in the Official Journal on 5 March 2020: "Amendment to and approval of the coordinated and consolidated text of Resolution No. 1.409 of 2001 establishing phytosanitary requirements for the importation of fresh strawberries (Fragaria spp.) from the United States of America, and repeal of that Resolution).
