Corruption  is widespread in South America and there is little control
(as compared to the U.S.) over pesticide use.

I will love you Bob (and the rest who the cap fits) change your mind
at least in the case of Chile, country that I know (and loves) lots.
Most of our export production is certified under very tuff european
standars (EUREGAP) and the local production is also controled by our
SAG .

Unfortunatelly I can`t deny that we still have nasty chemical allowed
here that are not allowed there. But we are on the rigth truck.
