Morocco: Pesticide MRLs

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

This report contains an unofficial translation of Morocco’s Order No. 156-14, setting pesticide MRLs in primary products and foodstuffs. Morocco’s intent of this measure, as stated in G/SPS/N/MAR/30, was to harmonize with the corresponding European directive. The measure touches Moroccan imports, valued at $2.5 billion, 10 percent of which comes from the United States and covers 60 percent of U.S. agricultural exports to Morocco.
