What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Codex Alimentarius Commission mandated stricter food safety compliance in Europe. Separately, Nigeria reported a sharp 31.2 per cent decline in agricultural exports during the first quarter of 2026. This decline was attributed to prolonged port delays, excessive pesticide application, and failure to obtain required phytosanitary certification, leading to increased rejection of farm produce in international markets.
