4.FDA Finds Fungicide in Some Brazil, Canada Orange Juice

By BILL TOMSON And LESLIE JOSEPHS The U.S. government said Friday it found small amounts of an unapproved fungicide in Brazilian and Canadian orange-juice shipments, causing an uptick in orange-juice futures prices. The findings don't pose a danger to consumers. The fungicide, called carbendazim, is approved for use on dozens of other crops by federal regulators. But because its approval for use on U.S. orange trees expired several years ago, regulators blocked orange-juice imports for testing earlier this month after Coca-Cola Co. detected the chemical in its and its competitors' orange juice. The positive test results sent frozen orange juice concentrate futures higher on concerns that U.S. juice supplies would be curtailed. The March contract on the ICE Futures U.S. exchange rose 2.1% to settle at $2.109 a pound. The front-month contract has gained 8% since the news that the Food and Drug Administration had begun testing orange-juice imports broke on Jan. 10. Between January and November 2011, Brazil accounted for about half of all U.S. orange-juice imports, while Canada contributed about 3.5%, according to the Florida Department of Citrus, a state agency. None of the positive shipments had more than 52 parts per billion of the chemical, according to FDA data, but the agency had determined that any shipment containing more than 10 parts per billion would be rejected. Most of the orange juice being tested at U.S. ports has come back negative. The FDA is also testing reconstituted juice at factories where the juice for consumers is made, but those results won't be released until Feb. 3. If any of that orange juice tests positive at 80 parts per billion or higher, the FDA has said it will "take steps for its removal from the market" but not issue any recalls. The Environmental Protection Agency has said levels of the fungicide below 80 parts per billion don't threaten public safety, according to the FDA. Brazil's orange-juice exporters complained that the FDA's standards were too strict, since the shipments are of concentrated orange juice, not the reconstituted juice found on grocery-store shelves. The concentrate "should be evaluated as though it were ready to be consumed, which would resolve almost all of the problem," said Christian Lohbauer, president of CitrusBR, the Brazilian orange-juice exporters' association. Carbendazim was federally approved for use as a fungicide on oranges as recently as 2009 and is considered safe for dozens of other U.S. crops, including apricots, bananas, cherries, grapes, peaches and pears. The Environmental Protection Agency also approved its use on apples and allows for small amounts of it in apple juice. The FDA delayed orange-juice imports and began testing for the fungicide after CocaCola, which makes Simply Orange and Minute Maid, reported its finding to the FDA on Dec. 28. It is unclear how long the FDA intends to continue testing imports. U.S. companies often use these imports to mix in with juice made from U.S. oranges. Coca-Cola and Pepsico Inc., the maker of Tropicana orange juice, reiterated Friday that their products were safe to consume. A spokesman from Tropicana said the company is making a transition to supply all of its orange juice for the Tropicana Pure Premium brand from Florida but said the decision, made in November, was unrelated to the carbendazim issue
