New Zealand’s Fonterra Cooperative Group Ltd. said two of its products are still banned by China eight months after a botulism scare that turned out to be a false alarm.
A temporary suspension remains in place for exports to China of Fonterra base powder for infant formula and Fonterra whey powder, spokesman Mike Burgess said in an e-mailed response to questions by Bloomberg News. The products account for less than 3 percent of New Zealand’s total dairy exports to China, he said.
