Tests conducted in Singapore have revealed that the stock of organic fertilizer sent to Sri Lanka by Biotech does not contain harmful bacteria.

The stock of fertilizer was rejected after tests conducted by the Plant Quarantine Unit of Sri Lanka revealed the presence of the bacterium Arvinia.

 However, the Chinese company did not accept the denial and handed over the case to the Singapore SGS Company as a third party for investigation.

The Sri Lankan government has also agreed to investigate by a third party. Meanwhile, the company recalled the ship with the fertilizer stock and the Sri Lankan government has approved to pay compensation for that.
