The Ministry of Agriculture refused a shipment of sesame seeds from Chad as it did not comply with the Jordanian health standards.

The Ministry of Agriculture spokesman, Lawrence Majali, said in a press statement on Thursday, “the technical team working at the port of Aqaba requested the return of two containers of 49 tons because of mold and insect infestation”.
