Stringency and dissimilarity of Maximum Residue Levels affect bilateral agri‐food trade stability
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.Abstract Food standards are rising in both prevalence and stringency. They protect consumers and may enhance demand stability but also pose compliance challenges to producers, with ambiguous effects on the stability of trade relationships.

Viable Counts Versus the Incidence of Machinery Mold (Geotrichum) On Processed Fruits and Vegetables
Journal of Food Protection, 1977 Aerobic plate counts on peas, green beans, corn, and beets collected at different processing stages were commonly 106-107 per g while counts on tart cherries were 103-104 per g. Bacteria made up 99% of the mesophilic microflora on the vegetables while yeasts predominated on the fruit. Many of the organisms appeared to be introduced with the raw product.
