California avocados can be sold in Mexico

Tagged: , ,

Under terms of the agreement, which is effective immediately, the avocados must be free of stems and leaves when shipped. For the first 12 months, California avocados may be distributed in all Mexican states except Michoacan, Jaliso, Morelos, Puebla and Nayarit, the mayor avocado-producing states.

The USDA has worked since 1999 to gain access to Mexico for California fruit. The Agriculture Department estimates the agreement may boost California avocado sales by as much as $24 million.
