The Melons Australia MRL App Has Launched!
Melons Australia is very happy to launch the new MRL app for the Australian melon industry. “Melons Australia’s MRL App” provides real-time information on maximum residue limits (MRLs) and withholding periods (WHPs) for both domestic and export markets. With an easy-to-use interface, growers can use the app anywhere and anytime due to its offline capability.
The Australian Melon Industry
The melon industry provides fresh fruit to Australian shoppers all year round. Quality watermelons, rockmelons, honeydew melons and a range of speciality melons like Piel De Sapo provide sweet fresh treats and are used in savoury and sweet recipes.
Our melons are grown by Australian farmers for Australian consumers. From the very north of the country to the south, 300 farmers produce melons in healthy soils with an abundance of fresh sunshine and clean water.
Nothing tastes as good as a fresh melon.
