Descripción
A glance through the official gazette of most nations, developed and developing, will usually reveal the existence of phytosanitary legislation. Phytosanitary legislation serves several purposes, most importantly enabling countries to protect their agricultural resources and natural environment from the introduction or spread of pests. Phytosanitary legislation defines the institutional framework necessary for effective plant protection and improves the efficiency and effectiveness of national a uthorities toward this end. It also allows countries to implement their international obligations with a view to facilitating international trade in plants and plant products and fostering cooperation and research in the field of plant protection.
