66kg high-quality vegetable seeds safely and efficiently imported
Recently, a batch of tomato and cucumber vegetable seeds weighing about 66 kilograms arrived at the designated supervision site for imported seedlings at Qingdao Jiaodong International Airport on an international cargo flight. After passing the quarantine inspection by customs officers, they were immediately transferred to the Beijing Shanghai cultivation base. These seeds will cultivate new seedlings and supply the East China market, further enriching the supply of the people's "vegetable basket".
Vegetable seeds, as high value-added agricultural products, have extremely high requirements for temperature and humidity control, packaging protection, and circulation efficiency. Once the packaging is damaged or the temperature and humidity are abnormal, it is easy to cause seed leakage, decay, and deterioration, directly affecting the effectiveness of seedling cultivation.
The seeds have high requirements for customs clearance time and environment, so we chose to import them from Qingdao Airport with complete protection measures. The survival rate of the cultivated seedlings directly determines our future income, "said Song Hongxin, the trade manager of Saint Niss Seed (Beijing) Co., Ltd.
In order to maintain the quality bottom line of the "vegetable basket", Qingdao Jiaodong Airport Customs under Qingdao Customs has made precise efforts to establish an efficient linkage guarantee system with Qingdao Airport, logistics companies and other departments. Key information such as cargo specifications and weight has been verified in advance, and through convenient measures such as "appointment clearance", on-site inspection and quality verification have been efficiently carried out to achieve "fast inspection and smooth operation".
At the same time, as the only airport port in Shandong Province with the qualification to import plant seedlings, Qingdao Jiaodong International Airport is equipped with complete regulatory facilities to build a strong safety line. The site is equipped with inspection areas, temporary detention areas, and isolation nurseries, as well as professional technical rooms such as sampling rooms, cultivation rooms, and mirror inspection rooms, which can implement standardized supervision of the entire process of imported seedlings.
Seeds, as plant reproductive materials, carry a high risk of carrying diseases and pests. With the support of the smart customs construction achievements, Qingdao Jiaodong Airport Customs and Technology Center Laboratory communicate in real time, adopt the "remote identification" method to assess risks in advance, and combine on-site inspection to accurately sample harmful organisms such as diseases, pests, weeds, etc. carried by seeds. This effectively blocks the risk of foreign plant disease transmission from the source, effectively blocks the risk of foreign plant disease transmission, and achieves "accurate detection and strict management".
Next, the customs of Qingdao Jiaodong Airport will continue to deepen the linkage mechanism with Qingdao Airport, continuously optimize the international cargo clearance process, provide more efficient and accurate customs protection and supervision, help improve the quality and efficiency of people's livelihood security, and effectively safeguard the people's "basket of vegetables".
