Akbar Ahangaran added that the measure has been taken to prevent the export of unripe kiwis as this will stain the reputation of Iranian kiwis in export markets, IRNA reported on Monday.

The ban, he added, has nothing to do with quarantine issues and is aimed at maintaining the quality of exports.
