On July 4, 2025, the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed (RASFF) reported an incident involving the detection of bifenasate in frozen strawberries. The origin of this issue has been traced back to Croatia. The presence of this substance has prompted a control incident category designation.
Bifenasate is a pesticide that is subject to strict regulations concerning its permissible levels in food products. The detection in frozen strawberries raises concerns regarding food safety and compliance with established food safety standards.
The RASFF serves as an essential communication tool for food safety authorities in the European Union, facilitating the rapid exchange of information regarding risks and incidents related to food and feed. Notifications such as this one are critical for ensuring that potential risks are addressed promptly and effectively.
Consumers and stakeholders within the food supply chain are advised to remain informed about such incidents, particularly those that may affect food products available in the market. The ongoing monitoring of food safety standards is vital to maintaining public health and confidence in food products.
