The content below demonstrates an example from the Hot Source report for one of the commodity groups showing Poultry meat ‘%’ relates to the number of issues concerning that commodity in its group, for example 36% of all issues concerning nuts, nut products and seeds involved pistachios.

‘Main issues’ reflects the majority of issues reported for that commodity, but does not include every minor issue, for example, most reported issues concerning chicken meat were the presence of Salmonella.

‘Issues’ relates to food recalls, border rejections and other such notifications at a global level collated from over 90 official government and other additional reliable sources around the world.
