    According to Piñol, the department is still waiting for the results of Pest Risk Analysis (PRA) in apple fruit samples before signing the document for importation of apples.

    Moreover, Tanhaei expressed that Iran is also interested in exporting cherry, pomegranate, and pistachios to the Philippines.

    With this, pia.gov.ph cited that Piñol plans to visit Iran in May to explore agriculture ventures with the country and lead in agri-fishery trade shows.
