Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand

The Chillies Exporters Association, India, has urged the Andhra Pradesh government to immediately ban or restrict the use of high-risk pesticide molecules in export-oriented chilli cultivation, warning that recurring pesticide residue violations could threaten India’s position in key international markets, particularly in China.In a representation submitted to the State’s Agriculture, Sericulture, Cooperation and Marketing Department on June 15, the association said export consignments of Indian dry chillies, especially from Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka, were increasingly facing rejection, delays and enhanced scrutiny because of pesticide residues exceeding permissible limits.
