Download or read book Phytosanitary Controls on Plants for Planting and Seeds to be Exported to the European Union written by and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the outcome of a series of audits in non-EU countries to evaluate the system of official plant health controls for the export of plants for planting and seeds to the European Union. Official controls in the exporting countries are not always carried out in line with EU requirements concerning their scope or are insufficiently thorough and do not guarantee that the plants are free from harmful organisms. This means a plant health risk for the EU. The competent authorities in the exporting countries have difficulties with interpreting EU import rules and organising the inspections accordingly. To address the issues highlighted in the report, the EU regularly updates the import rules taking into consideration the plant health risk and the audit findings. In addition, EU and other international aid programmes provide assistance in developing phytosanitary controls in the exporting countries.

Download or read book Import Controls for Plant Health written by and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides an overview of a European Commission project on import controls for plant health. The objectives of the project were to evaluate Member States' capacity and performance of import controls on plant health, to identify and promote best practice across the Union, and to support the development of implementing legislation under the new Plant Health Law and Official Controls Regulation. The project did not find any significant shortcomings with import control procedures for plant health, but identified substantial differences between Member States in their capacity and implementation of import checks. The report highlights some of the many examples of good practice and critical points that were identified by the project and the action taken subsequently by the Commission and Member States during the development of the new plant health regime.

This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report constitutes a technical analysis of the responses to the questionnaire regarding the phytosanitary measures related to the Plant Passport (PP) system under the new plant health legislation, as provided by several stakeholders. The questionnaire - sent in February 2021 - was answered by 177 respondents including National Plant Protection Organisations (NPPOs), certification Competent Authorities (CAs), professional operators, associations (both national and EU-wide), and the general public, from 25 different EU Member States. This report includes an analysis carried out by DG SANTE of policy aspects related to the experience gained from the extension of the plant passport system to all movement of plants for planting within the territory of the European Union, as addressed in the questionnaire, and a cost benefit analysis thereof, carried out by JRC. Results show the stakeholders' views on the cost and benefits of the extension of the PP requirement to all movement of plants for planting within the territory of the European Union, as well as some other provisions aimed at strengthening the PP system. The results also include evaluation of other relevant policy aspects and alternatives as perceived by the stakeholders: the introduction of an electronic PP, the provisions of distance contracts, the changes related to Regulated Non-Quarantine Pests (RNQPs) regarding the new PP requirements, and the implementation of the new rules on pre-export certificates. This report is drafted for the preparation of the report to the European Parliament and to the Council according to the legislative obligation of the Commission laid down in Article 79(6) of the Plant Health Regulation (EC 2016/2031).

Download or read book Identification and Response to New Plant Health Risks written by and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant health is of crucial importance for sustainable agriculture, food security and environmental protection. It is constantly exposed to new and emerging risks, resulting from the rapidly increasing global trade in plants and plant products and climate change, and illustrated by the frequent findings of new harmful organisms by Member States on plants and plant products imported into the EU, and on the Union territory. The European Union's (EU) plant health system aims to minimise and manage these risks, using a combination of prohibitions and specific control measures. This report provides an overview of a project carried out by the European Commission's Directorate General for Health and Food Safety, to evaluate the measures in place to identify and respond to new and emerging risks to plant health and highlights the critical points and many examples of good practice that were identified for ensuring the effective control of such risks.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication presents the proceedings of a regional technical meeting held in Budapest, Hungary from 6 to 10 March 2001. The meeting was organized and implemented by the Agricultural Research Institute of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Martonvasar, Hungary, in close collaboration with FAO's Seed and Plant Genetic Resources Service. In line with the Rome Declaration on World Food Security and the World Food Summit Plan of Action, the meeting recognized that one of the major challenges facing most countries in the region is the need to invest significant resources in strengthening their capacity to increase the availability of good quality seed of a wider range of plant varieties. This will contribute to the maximization of both agrobiodiversity and productivity, in order to achieve national food security while reducing environmental degradation and the depletion of natural resources."
