Import Tips
• Obtain phytosanitary certificates from exporting countries to verify freedom from pests like rye ergot and Karnal bunt
• Declare moisture content accurately (typically under 14%) to avoid quarantine issues upon U.S. entry
• Label as 'for milling' or 'for feed' to prevent misclassification as seed rye
