Diminished Aflatoxin Risk Pistachios (DARP): 

DARPs are different from normal pistachios traded internationally in two respects:

1. Drastically improved consistency of Aflatoxin test results.  In particular in commercial lots undergoing repeated sampling at different stages of clearance.
2. Improved quality in terms of physical characteristic specified below:
   1. Uniformity of commercial lot in size
   2. The miniscule presence of foreign material
   3. The good appearance of pistachios being devoid of colored, deformed and unripe nuts

Aria Export can accept responsibility of passing defined sampling and testing control regimes in Iran or abroad.  This control regime can be based on inspections from Health Authorities in entry points or final buyer’s premises by an independent inspection team.  Eventually this control regime can be based on any independent inspection team at origin.
