Review of the national biosecurity plan for the potato industry and development of a biosecurity manual for potato producers

This ongoing investment is responsible for updating the industry’s biosecurity plan for the Australian potato industry. It focusses on identifying high-priority endemic and exotic pests and diseases along with the risk mitigation activities required to reduce their biosecurity threat. A key output is the production of a manual to increase growers’ awareness of key pests and diseases and the steps that can be undertaken to minimise their risk to their business and industry.
