West African mango exporting countries expressed concern at a workshop regarding the control of fruit flies, following a increase in mango interceptions on the European market. The Regional Agency for Agriculture and Food (Araa) of ECOWAS indicated a significant increase in interceptions in 2022 compared to 2021. The EU introduced a new directive on mango imports in 2019 due to pest concerns. The Araa attributes the increasing interceptions to weak implementation of good production management practices, inaccessibility of approved control products, traceability system failures, and weak regulation enforcement. The Syrimao project, which started in 2021, is implementing new technologies and partnerships to address these issues and improve the sector's self-financing through a mandatory contribution.
