On 10/5/2015, MHLW (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare) reported they detected significant density of Cesium-134/137 from 46 of 50 dried persimmons produced in Fukushima prefecture.

They announce none of these samples were distributed for sale.

The samples were collected in mid September.

15 of them exceeded the food safety limit in Cs-134/137 density. The highest density was 270 Bq/Kg, which is nearly 3 times higher than food safety limit.
