Customers choose oranges, grown on local Changxing Island, at a supermarket in downtown Shanghai yesterday. The Shanghai Agricultural Commission will conduct spot checks on oranges from other provinces to see whether they contain worms, as happened in some parts of the country. The checks will cover all the major fruit wholesale markets in the city. The commission has already checked oranges produced in local suburbs and no pests have been found, officials confirmed.- Shanghai Daily
