“…Exported fresh fruits and vegetables are normally subjected to phytosanitary treatments, as spelled out in ISPM 28 (Phytosanitary treatments for regulated pests), to prevent the introduction of harmful pests [31][32][33] (Table 2). However, the phytosanitary treatment deployed should not impact negatively on the quality of the fruit or vegetable [34].…”

Phytosanitary and Technical Quality Challenges in Export Fresh Vegetables and Strategies to Compliance with Market Requirements: Case of Smallholder Snap Beans in Kenya

Kenya is one of the leading exporters of snap beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) to Europe, but the export volume has remained below potential mainly due to failure to meet the market quality standards. The quality concerns include the presence of regulated and quarantine pests, pesticide residues, harmful organisms, and noncompliance with the technical standards. These challenges call for the development of alternative approaches in overcoming the phytosanitary and quality challenges in the export of snap beans and other fresh vegetables. These may include integrated pest management (IPM) approaches that incorporate non synthetic chemical options, such as diversified cropping systems, plant and microbial-based pesticides, varieties with multiple disease and pest resistance, insecticidal soaps, pheromones and kairomones, entomopathogens and predators. These approaches, coupled with capacity-building and adherence to the set quality standards, will improve compliance with export market requirements. The aim of this paper is to increase knowledge on implementing good practices across the value chain of fresh vegetables that would lead to improved quality and thereby meeting institutional requirements for the export market. The novelty of the current review is using snap beans as a model vegetable to discuss the challenges that must be mitigated for the quest of achieving high quality and increased volume of fresh export products. Whilst many of the publications have focused on alternatives to synthetic pesticides in addressing MRLs in fresh vegetable exports, there is a disconnect between research and industry in achieving chemical residue and pest free export vegetables. This review describes the phytosanitary and technical challenges faced by smallholder farmers in accessing export markets, evaluates the phytosanitary and quality requirements by the niche markets, and explores the strategies that could be used to enhance compliance to the institutional and market requirements for fresh vegetables.

The Green Revolution has greatly changed agricultural production methods. Agriculture has become more specialized and intensive, and the use of phytopharmaceutical products, including insecticides, has intensified. However, these are harmful to the environment and human health. At the same time, globalization has led to the introduction of alien species (called invasive), whose establishment in Europe has been facilitated by the abundance of nutritive resources and the absence of natural enemies. These observations are particularly true with Drosophila suzukii. This fly is now considered as the main fruit pest in the world. Thus, it is becoming urgent to find alternative control methods to insecticides to counter the economic damage caused by this new pest. However, the development of an integrated pest management approach requires an excellent understanding of the biology and ecology of the species. In this paper, we first present the state of knowledge on the life cycle, host plants and phenology of D. suzukii. The current geographical distribution and the history of invasion of this pest are detailed, before estimating the extent of the economic losses caused. In a second part, the known alternative control methods against D. suzukii are listed: cultural practices, post-harvest treatments, sterile insect releases, uses of natural enemies and behavioral manipulations (visual and olfactory). Finally, in a third part, we will see how these methods can be combined to improve the control of this pest.

“…Alguns insetos atacam as folhas das lavouras e as danificam, comprometendo a produção de fotoassimilados, o que acaba reduzindo a produção agrícola; outros são responsáveis por danificar os frutos e as raízes, o que também afeta a produção das culturas (Misra et al, 2020); insetos podem ainda causar prejuízos no armazenamento de grãos (Bhavya et al, 2020) e na pós-colheita de produtos agrícolas (Saeed et al, 2020).…”

Os insetos-praga representam uma importante fonte de perdas agrícolas em todo o globo. Situação que é maximizada pela introdução de espécies fora da sua área natural de ocorrência, levando os países a elaborarem listas de quarentena a fim de proteger sua produção interna e não comprometerem suas exportações de produtos agrícolas. Nesse sentido, essa pesquisa busca revisar e analisar o potencial invasivo e riscos da Bactrocera carambolae Drew & Hancock 1994 (Diptera:Tephritidae), importante praga da fruticultura mundial e praga quarentenária presente no Brasil. Bactrocera carambolae é uma espécie de mosca-das-frutas oriunda do sudeste asiático e que infesta uma grande diversidade de frutíferas, tanto nativas, como de interesse econômico. No Brasil, seu registro inicial é datado de 1996 no estado do Amapá, e atualmente além desse estado, foi reportada nos estados do Pará e Roraima. No país já infesta 21 hospedeiros, entre eles acerola, carambola, caju, goiaba, manga e tangerina, e apresenta potencial de adentrar mercados agrícolas importantes, como o polo de fruticultura irrigada do Vale do São Francisco. Bactrocera carambolae representa sérios riscos para a fruticultura brasileira, principalmente pela potencial exclusão de mercados para exportação de frutas. Dessa forma, ações de controle e erradicação dessa praga precisam ser mantidas e aperfeiçoadas, buscando-se evitar severos danos socioeconômicos para a cadeia produtiva de frutas no Brasil.
