India to Revise Certain Food Product Standards

India recently amended standards for a range of food and agricultural products, the U.S. Department of Agriculture Foreign Agricultural Service reported April 9. The amendments, which will take effect Jan. 1, 2022, will affect certain fruit, grains, flours, cereals and egg products, USDA said. The measures also include “major revisions” to standards for certain “substances added to foods,” including trehalose, tocopherols and other “food processing aids and enzymes.”
