Agriculture | A fungus disease of wheat that reduces yields and causes an unpalatable but harmless flavor in flour milled from infected kernels. Appearance of the disease in the United States in early 1996 resulted in the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service implementing an emergency quarantine, inspection, and certification program for wheat moving out of the infested areas, along with regulations on sanitizing machinery and storage facilities. Many foreign countries have a zero tolerance for karnal bunt in import shipments. (references) |

Economic History | Norway | Imports from the U.S. have almost disappeared the last two years, and in year 2000, importers of wheat from U.S. were hit by an extra control tax of US$ 3 per ton due to Karnal Bunt problems in US. At the moment we see this as a trade barrier which has to be solved if US exporters are to be able to sell to the Norwegian market. (references) |
Political Economy | GREECE | Agricultural Products: Greek testing methods for Karnal bunt disease in U.S. wheat have served as a de facto ban on imports and transshipment of wheat for the last three years due to a high incidence of false positive results. (references) |
