Amendment of import conditions for tomato and Capsicum imports to include tomato brown rugose fruit VIRUS (ToBRFV)

The amendment describes the import conditions to certify the absence of Tomato brown rugose fruit virus (ToBRFV) in the seed of paprika (Capsicum annuum) and tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) in addition to mandatory testing requirement for the pest.

Tomato brown rugose fruit virus (ToBRFV) is listed as a quarantine pest of tomato and capsicum in Kenya. The virus is a threat to countries importing seeds of tomato and capsicum. ToBRFV affects all growth stages of Capsicum annum (bell pepper) and Solanum lycopersicum (tomato); both in the Solanaceae family. It is spread through seed from infected to non-infected areas.
