Overview
Increased trade in fresh fruits and vegetables provides U.S.
consumers with a variety of benefits including the possibility of
improved nutrition by making these products available year-round.
Imports of these products are regulated by USDA's Animal and Plant
Health and Inspection Service (APHIS) to reduce the risk of
inadvertent entry of pests and diseases that could harm
agriculture, public health, navigation, irrigation, natural
resources, or the environment.
This data product identifies which countries, under APHIS
phytosanitary rules, are eligible to export to the United States
the fresh fruits and vegetables that are most important in the
American diet. Current data represent country eligibility as of
June 2012. Previous data represent eligibility in June of
2008 through 2011 and in February of 2007. Data on the absolute and
relative importance of these countries in international production
and trade, individually and in aggregate, are also included. This
data product supports the objectives of the Program for Research on
the Economics of Invasive Species (PREISM) under which ERS funded
research to improve the economic basis of decisionmaking concerning
invasive species issues, policies, and programs between 2003 and
2008.
