Question

What is the purpose of World Trade Ooganization sanitary and phytosanitary measures aggrement?

Answer 1

The purpose is so that there is a standard of what is considered healthy and sanitary practices for the preparation and distribution of food. This is to ensure that if a food product is exported or imported that it won't be unclean, or have chemicals in it that are considered unhealthy. The policies in the agreement relate to food safety, bacterial contaminants, inspecting processes, pesticides, and labels. Phytosanitary refers to animal and plant health. Every country that signs it would have to follow the rules of the agreement.
