Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Turkish Agriculture and Forestry Minister İbrahim Yumaklı said pesticide use in Türkiye stands at 2.3 kilograms per hectare, below the European Union average of 3.2 kilograms, and that RASFF notifications concerning pesticide residues in Turkish products fell 74% over the past three years. The comparison is aimed at reassuring export markets about residue safety as the EU remains Türkiye's largest agricultural trade partner. Watch for updated RASFF notification data and any EU scrutiny of Turkish fresh produce shipments.
