The Republic Phytosanitary Inspection Service, as part of the regular control of shipments of seeds of agricultural plants during import, banned the import of 1,258 pieces of fruit seedlings originating from Turkey.
During the inspection of the shipment, the inspector determined that the specified shipment was not accompanied by the necessary documentation and a phytosanitary certificate of the country of origin/export, which means that the legally prescribed conditions for the import of the shipment of plants were not met. Based on the above, the inspector issued a Decision banning the import of the shipment in question and ordered the destruction in the presence and under supervision of the competent inspector.
The Republic Phytosanitary Inspection Service during importation at the border crossings of Republic of Srpska carries out detailed controls of import planting material. The quality of seeds of agricultural plants, planting material, fertilizers and other raw materials is a basic prerequisite for achieving high and quality yields, which is why the inspection carries out continuous supervision over its traffic, both during import and in internal market.
The aim of the inspection is to ensure high-quality agricultural raw materials that are traded and used in the Republic of Srpska and thus provide strong support to domestic agricultural production.
