The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has suspended shipment of fresh potatoes to the U.S.
The suspension comes in response to concerns expressed by the U.S. Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (USDA APHIS) after potato wart was found on two different Prince Edward Island farms.
The suspension includes table stock potatoes and processing potatoes, but does not apply to processed potatoes, such as frozen products.
