,Cool cargo ‘: 30,000 Fresh on feet continues

Maintaining fresh mangoes safe and fresh even in long journey is not an easy task. For this, Air India uses special temperature-controlled facilities. The mangoes are kept in thermal blankets and cool dolly at the airport so that they reach their destination with freshness.

Air India’s Head of Cargo Ramesh Mamidala said, “We handle the mangoes equally caution and accuracy, such as a precious glass items. It is not just a fruit delivery, but a beautiful story from the fields of India to the world markets.”

US-India Trade: The American Custom Officer recently dismissed at least 15 mango shipments from India at several airports including Los Angeles, San Francisco and Atlanta due to disturbances in documents. This decision not only caused a loss of about $ 500,000 (about Rs 4.2 crore) to Indian exports, but the matter is also questioning Indo-US trade relations.

All these shipments were stopped on the basis of the mistakes of the document called PPQ203. This document shows that mangoes have obtained the required pest control radiation treatment. This process is under the supervision of the USDA officer in an authorized facility in Navi Mumbai. Although the exporters claim that the radiation process was completed correctly and without the PPQ203 document, the goods could not be loaded at the airport, the US border security agencies accused these forms of issuing these forms incorrectly and stopped the shipment.

Two options for exporters
American officials had given the option to Indian exporters to either destroy the shipment in the US or be sent back to India, but since the common mangoes are very bad fruit and excessive spending on return shipping, all exporters opted to destroy mangoes at the local level itself. One exporter said, “We are being punished for the mistake that we have not done.”

Impact on Indo-US trade agreement?
This case has come up at a time when India and America are trying to finalize the trade agreement. In the proposed agreement, where India has demanded a discount on tariffs on many products, such as textile, leather, shrimp, chemicals and grapes-America seeks relief on industrial products, wine, electric vehicles and dairy products. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump claimed that India has really proposed no tariff deal, whereas according to the Indian side they are moving towards the Vin-Win-Win.
