Cucumbers produced in France

Order extending an amendment to the inter-branch agreement concluded within the Inter-branch Association of the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Industry (INTERFEL) and relating to the classification of cucumbers for the 2018–2019 marketing years

The Order extends the provisions of the amended agreement of 24 May 2016 intended to improve the quality of cucumbers in France.

The amendment modifies the provisions on the agreement’s scope of application in order to explicitly restrict it to ‘long’ or ‘Dutch’ cucumbers and remove any confusion regarding the term ‘short cucumber’. Article V on marking has been amended so that the obligation to indicate the minimum and maximum weight for classification purposes no longer strictly makes reference to the classification scale set out in the agreement.

The agreement’s other provisions have not been amended.
