CIRCULAR OF THE GENERAL ADMINISTRATION OF QUALITY SUPERVISION, INSPECTION AND QUARANTINE OF THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF CHINA ON FURTHER STRENGTHENING THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE INSPECTION AND QUARANTINE OF PEANUT EXPORT

Circular of the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the People’s Republic of China on Further
Strengthening the Administration of the Inspection and Quarantine of Peanut Export

Guo Zhi Jian Shi Han [2006] No. 613

The inspection and quarantine bureaus directly under the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine:

As one of our country’s traditional staple agricultural products, peanuts are exported to more than 100 countries and regions, with
the annual export amount 778,000 tons, equivalent to more than $0.6 billion. In recent years, the peanut export amount of our country
has increased steadily and its quality safety has been improved somewhat. However, developed countries have been increasingly strict
with peanut safety requirement. The production and management as well as the process control of peanut whose plantation and initial
processing is very popular in our country are not perfect. In order to further strengthen the administration of the inspection and
quarantine of the export of peanuts and to comprehensively improve the quality safety of the export of peanuts, the relevant issues
are notified as follows:

1.

To get a clear understanding of the current situation and to nail down the work direction

All the bureaus concerned should be clearly aware of the serious situation faced with the peanut export in our country. On the one
hand, import countries are increasingly strict with the quality safety index. The positive list system of Japan has increased the
inspection item of pesticide residues in the peanut to 290 and implements the uniform standard of 0.01mg/kg for the pesticide residue
items which are not clearly limited. On the other hand, the quality safety of exported peanut in our countries has many problems.
First, the cases being reported due to the excess of alflatoxin are annually increasing, such cases reported by the European Union
increased from 53 in 2004 to 76 in 2005; the cases where the excess of alflatoxin in the peanut exported to Japan are also increasing
strikingly, in February 2006 the excess rate reached 3.47% and was ordered to be investigated. Second, the excess of pesticide remnant
in the exported peanut is also serious. The Japanese authority has ordered checking Daminozido in the peanut exported hereto and
supervising and checking Acetochlor in the proportion of 50%. Third, the cases where heavy metal pollution and the use of addictive
against the law are also more and more serious, for instance, the excess of cadmium in the peanuts exported to Australia and the
Sodium Cyclamate prohibited in Japan in the finished peanut products exported to Japan has been found.

All the authorities should attach great importance to it, change their minds, research and analyze the situation and the problems
faced nowadays in an earnest manner, actively explore them and take feasible and effective measures to further strengthen the supervision
and administration of plantation origin, production and processing, storage and transportation and the quality safety control, continuously
improve the quality of inspection and quarantine work so as to promote the development of China’s peanut export.

2.

To strengthen the process control and to improve the work effectiveness

The pollution of peanut aflatoxin may happen in every link or process of plantation, reaping, drying, shelling, storage, processing
and transportation, so the whole-process supervision should be carried out in order to solve problems radically. In order to improve
its whole-process quality safety control upon the peanut exported to such countries and regions as European Union and Japan, the
General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine has formulated Quality Safety Control Requirement of Exported
Peanut (for Trial Implementation) (Appendix, hereinafter referred to as Control Requirement). All the bureaus shall organize the
relevant enterprises to earnestly study and learn the Control Requirement herein, to guide enterprises to establish the whole-process
quality safety control system and traceability system, and to increase their efficiency in the control of hazardous pollutants such
as aflatoxin in exported peanut.

Where the content of such harmful material in the exported peanuts as aflatoxin, pesticide remnants, heavy metal does not meet the
requirement of the import country, these peanuts may not be given clearance.

3.

To strengthen the personnel training and improve their inspection capability

All the bureaus shall carry out training of relevant laws and rule, professional knowledge and quality safety control system in European
Union, Japan and China toward the managers who process peanut production and processing, urge enterprises to establish and perfect
the self-examination and self-control system of such poisonous materials as aflatoxin. The enterprises who intend to export peanut
to European Union and Japan must establish the inspection lab of aflatoxin equipped with the inspection personnel who meet the requirement,
and carry out contrast experiment with the inspection and quarantine authorities to ensure the preciseness of the inspection result
of alfatoxin in exported peanut material and finished products and to improve the self-examination and self-control capability.

4.

To strengthen the inspection of the remnant of pesticide and to reduce the export risk

All the relevant authorities shall, in accordance with the Inspection and Control Plan of the Pesticide Remnant in Food of Plant Origin
as well as the local situation, do well the inspection of the poisonous products such as aflatoxin, pesticide, and heavy metal as
well the remnant control work, establish the relevant data, persuade the export enterprises from purchasing peanut material from
the seriously polluted areas, and reduce the risk of standard excess of poisonous material in exported products.

5.

To carry out supervision and inspection to ensure its effective implementation

All the bureaus shall undertake comprehensive inspection upon the quality safety control system of the relevant enterprises and inspection
and quarantine of the exported products. Once the peanut herein does not meet the requirement, the authorities shall urge the enterprise
to rectify itself to ensure the effective implementation of the Control Requirement from the plantation of raw material to every
link of the export. The General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine shall undertake supervision and
inspection upon the implementation of the Control Requirement and to report the relevant situation to the whole system.

Once all the bureaus find problems in the process of inspection and quarantine of exported peanut, they shall deal with them and report
them to the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine.
