Summary

The following document is submitted to the Working Party for adoption as a new United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) standard concerning the marketing and commercial quality control of whole dried rosehip.

At the 2023 session, the Specialized Section on Standardization of Dry and Dried Produce agreed to develop a draft standard on whole dried rosehip as proposed by the Central Asian Working Group to Promote Exports of Agricultural Produce (CAWG). A draft standard was developed by CAWG and discussed at the 2024 session of the Specialized Section, which suggested some small modifications. It agreed for CAWG to address the questions and to review the resulting standard through an intersessional procedure.
