The main
part of the products supplied by them are white cabbage and cauliflower,
onions, dill, parsley, grapes, beets, tomatoes and other types of fruit and
vegetable products.
As
explained in the department, the decision was made in connection with the
increased frequency of detection of quarantine facilities in the supply of quarantined
products from Uzbekistan. The restrictive measures are aimed at ensuring food
security, maintaining the phytosanitary well-being of the territory of Russia,
as well as preventing the import and spread of quarantine organisms.
According
to the Rosselkhoznadzor, since the beginning of 2026, 132 cases of quarantine
objects have been registered in the supply of products from Uzbekistan. Among
them are the tomato brown rugose fruit virus, the South American tomato moth
(Tuta absoluta), the Western (California) flower thrips (Frankliniella
occidentalis) and Beet necrotic yellow vein benyvirus.
