China publishes new produce import approval list

Update: The U.S. Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) has told www.freshfruitportal.com that contrary to what has been published by AQSIQ, Washington apples are still banned from the Chinese market. Chinese authorities have not yet responded to requests to explain why this fruit was included in the list.
