New Codex spices standards ready for adoption
Apr 30, 2021
The first ever virtual session of a Codex commodity committee saw record participation with more than 60 countries taking part over the six days from 20 to 29 April 2021. The Codex Committee on Spices and Culinary Herbs (CCSCH) will be sending four draft standards, oregano, ginger, cloves and basil, for final adoption by the Commission.
The committee is hosted by India. Chairperson Dr.M.R.Sudharshan explained the importance of adopting these standards. “It means a lot to the producing countries, particularly from developing economies. These could be incorporated into their national standards and facilitate their trade. I am particularly happy about the oregano standard, which was stranded for a long time in the committee.”
