The INC International Nut and Dried Fruit Council was founded in 1983 with the mission of endorsing activities that provide its membership new opportunities for increasing global consumption of almonds, Brazil nuts, cashews, hazelnuts, macadamias, pecans, pine nuts, pistachios, walnuts, peanuts, apricots, dates, figs, prunes, raisins, sultanas, and currants by:
- Collecting and distributing a single source of annual statistical information from producing and consuming countries.
- Ensuring the global quality standards and trading terms are within the framework of existing national and international bodies and do not inhibit trade within the industry.
- Promoting research and scientific studies through the INC Foundation.
- Promoting international cooperation by interacting with various public, private, national and international organizations which share our common goals.
- Increasing goodwill and mutual understanding of the nut and dried fruit industry by promoting international meetings in producing and consuming countries.
The INC is the International source for information on nuts and dried fruits for: Health, Nutrition, Food Safety, Statistics, Government Standards and Government regulations regarding trade barriers and trade quality standards.
MYCORED (Novel integrated strategies for worldwide mycotoxin reduction in the food and feed chains) is a large collaborative European Union project within the Seventh Framework Programme. The project aims at developing strategic solutions to reduce mycotoxin contamination that entails a higher concern in economically important food and feed chains. Novel methodologies, efficient handling procedures and information, dissemination and educational strategies are considered in a context of multidisciplinary integration of know-how and technology to reduce mycotoxins exposure worldwide. The project is significantly built on the outcome of several European projects on mycotoxins by supporting, stimulating and facilitating education and cooperation with countries having major mycotoxin concerns related to (international) trade and human health.

INTRODUCTION
1. Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed The RASFF is an effective tool to exchange information within EU Member States about measures taken in response to serious risks detected in relation to food or feed. This exchange of information helps Member States to act more rapidly and in a coordinated manner in response to a health threat caused by food or feed.
The INC report collects and classifies all 2012 RASFF notifications for nuts and dried fruits intended for food published in the RASFF portal web page, regarding product, country of origin, notifying country and type of notification.
The report also includes notifications for peanuts intended for feed, which are not included in the general overview, summary or 2007-2011 comparisons.
Some caution is needed when drawing conclusions from this report, for example, it is not because a Member State has a relatively high number of notifications that the situation regarding food safety is disastrous in that country. On the contrary, it could indicate that a greater number of food checks are carried out. The analysis shall consider trade volumes through Member States.
The report includes the relation between the 2010 imports of the RASFF member states from the notified countries and its total notifications. At the time of writing this report, not enough trade values were available to provide data for 2011.
2. The Legal Basis The legal basis of the RASFF is Regulation (EC) Nº 178/2002, published in the European Official Journal L.31 of 1 February 2002.
Article 50 of this Regulation establishes the rapid alert system for food and feed as a network involving its members. Whenever a member of the network has any information relating to the existence of a serious direct or indirect risk to human health deriving from food or feed, this information is immediately notified to the Commission under the RASFF. The Commission immediately transmits this information to the members of the network. Article 50.3 of the Regulation lays down additional criteria for when a RASFF notification is required.
Member States shall immediately notify the Commission under the rapid alert system of:
- Any measure they adopt which is aimed at restricting the placing on the market or forcing the withdrawal from the market or the recall of food or feed in order to protect human health and requiring rapid action.
- Any recommendation or agreement with professional operators which is aimed, on a voluntary or obligatory basis, at preventing, limiting or imposing specific conditions on the placing on the market or the eventual use of food or feed on account of a serious risk to human health requiring rapid action.
- Any rejection related to a direct or indirect risk to human health, of a batch, container or cargo of food or feed by a competent authority at a border post within the European Union.
Regulation (EC) N° 16/2011 lays down implementing rules for the RASFF. It entered into force on 31 January 2011. The Regulation lays down requirements for members of the network and the procedure for transmission of the different types of notifications. A difference is made between notifications requiring rapid action (alert notifications) and other notifications (information notifications and border rejection notifications).
3. Members The RASFF list of members includes the 27 EU Member States, the European Commission, as member and manager of the system, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), Norway, Liechtenstein, Switzerland and Iceland.

4. Notifications
The system differentiates between ‘market’ notifications and border rejections. According to the seriousness of the risks identified and the distribution of the product on the market, the market notification is classified as alert notification or information notification.
• Alert notifications - Alert notifications are sent when a food or
feed presenting a serious risk is on the market or when rapid action is required.
- Products subject to an alert notification have been withdrawn or are in the process of being withdrawn from the market. Member States have their own mechanisms to carry out such actions, including the provision of detailed information through the media if necessary.
- Alerts are triggered by the member of the network that detects the problem and has initiated the relevant measures, such as withdrawal/recall. The notification aims at giving all the members of the network the information to verify whether the concerned product is on their market, so that they can take the necessary measures.
• Information notifications - An information notification concerns a food
or a feed on the market of the notifying country for which a risk has been identified that does not require rapid action, because the product has not reached the market or is no longer on their market.
- Products subject to an information notification have not reached the market or all necessary measures have already been taken or are in process of being taken.
• Border rejections - A border rejection notification concerns a
food or a feed that was refused entry into the Community and was rejected at their external borders for reason of a health risk.
The notifications are accompanied by a detailed explanation of the reasons for the action taken by the Member State in which the notification was issued. Notifications are immediately transmitted by the Commission to the members. Border rejections are transmitted to all members’ border posts as well as the third country of origin. Information is also provided to third countries when a food or feed has been notified and shipped to them.
