The presence of DON is widely regulated by import and human health agencies around the world – who are often under pressure from domestic groups including consumer advocates and farm organizations to implement strict limits and, in some cases, regular testing. As an organization working to promote U.S. grown wheat, U.S. Wheat Associates regularly interfaces with regulators and importing country industry groups to help facilitate trade and minimize the impact of DON regulations on global wheat trade. Coordination across the US wheat industry is a must to minimize the those impacts and to protect free and open flow of wheat from producers to consumers.
