Indonesia destroyed 5.7 tons of shrimp over radioactive cesium-137 on packaging, despite safe meat levels, to protect public health.
Indonesian authorities destroyed 5.7 tons of shrimp from Cikande, Banten, on November 15, 2025, after U.S. FDA testing detected radioactive cesium-137 on packaging.
Though shrimp levels were below safety limits, contamination on outer surfaces prompted destruction using a controlled incinerator in Bogor.
The process, monitored for emissions, followed recommendations from Indonesia’s Quarantine Agency and nuclear regulators to protect public health and the environment.
The incident is part of broader concerns over radiation in agricultural exports.
