How we counted

We searched the public RASFF Window for notifications validated from 27 October 2025 to 27 October 2026, with Türkiye as country of origin, in the product categories "nuts, nut products and seeds" and "fruits and vegetables". We sorted them into products by the words in each subject, in English and the other languages notifying countries used. Apricot kernels are a different product and are left out. Products routed through Türkiye but grown elsewhere are not counted, because their origin is another country. We run this count again each month.
