Growing and harvest conditions
The pears must have been grown by growers registered with the National Plant Protection Organization (NPPO) of China in an APHIS-approved export growing area in the Hebei or Shandong Provinces.
Field inspections for signs of pest infestation must be conducted by the NPPO of China during the growing season.
The registered growers shall be responsible for following the phytosanitary measures agreed upon by APHIS and the NPPO of China, including applying pesticides to reduce the pest population and bagging the pears on the trees to reduce the opportunity for pests to attack the fruit during the growing season. The bags must remain on the pears through the harvest and during their movement to the packinghouse.
The packinghouses in which the pears are prepared for exportation shall not be used for any fruit other than Ya variety pears from registered growers during the pear export season. The packinghouses shall accept only those pears that are in intact bags as required by this section. The pears must be loaded into containers at the packinghouse and the containers then sealed before movement to the port of export.
