Experience has made me a bit wiser in knowing some do's and don'ts when it comes to fruit and veg.
Sth Aust has been vigilant with the establishing of fruit fly inspection stations, specifically for the control of goods coming into SA.
Strategically placed on roads entering SA at boarder control stations you have to dump all the produce in your possession or face costly fines.
Some areas within SA there are internal control measures, billboard notifications to dump any produce you have at designated bins or face fines if you dont have a purchase receipt showing that the goods in your possession were purchased in SA. Bad luck, if you are pulled over and questioned, generally a vehicle towing any form a camping goods can draw attention.
The price of fruit and vegetables when travelling away from major centres can almost be classified as a luxury, and it is not the sort of thing you want to purchase shortly before crossing a state boarder unless you know the rules and regulations.
For anyone planning a big trip this free little booklet may be of interest to you.
