Import Tips
• Provide mill test reports confirming protein via NIR analysis calibrated to official reference methods
• Include phytosanitary certificates addressing wheat-specific pests like fusarium head blight
• Avoid bulk shipments exceeding container moisture limits (14.5%) to prevent grade downgrades on arrival
