Decision amending the second transitional article of the Decision Notifying Guidelines for Organic Agricultural Activities, published on 29 October 2013 |
Tóm tắt |
Pursuant to the second transitional article of the Decision Notifying Guidelines for Organic Agricultural Activities, operators certified under voluntary schemes shall, upon the date of this Decision's entry into force, bring themselves into compliance with its provisions and obtain the respective organic certification within a maximum period of 12 months, i.e. by April 2015.
Section V of Article 258 of the Decision Notifying Guidelines for Organic Agricultural Activities establishes that imported products from countries that have equivalent regulations and control systems, or which are certified by certification bodies approved by the Ministry, may be marketed as organic on the domestic market. Given that Mexico is currently addressing the equivalence of the national control system, trade flows would be affected, as, from 30 April 2015 onwards, it would not be possible to market imported organic products on the domestic market without them being re-certified, which would give rise to an increase in their cost and price for the industrial sector, traders and consumers.
