National Bee Pest Surveillance Program (PH25001)
This project supports the continuation of the National Bee Pest Surveillance Program (NBPSP), a coordinated, risk-based initiative to detect exotic and regionally significant bee pests.
Ongoing project
Summerfruit biosecurity plan review (SF25001)
Delivery Partner: Plant Health Australia Ltd
This project will renew the national Summerfruit Biosecurity Plan to ensure the industry remains prepared for harmful exotic pests. As part of its responsibilities under the Emergency Plant Pest Response Deed, the industry must keep its preparedness arrangements up to date, with the previous plan now due for review.
Technical experts will assess exotic pests and prioritise those that pose the highest risk. An expert group from government and industry will confirm the recommended mitigation actions, with annual reviews carried out through Biosecurity Reference Panels.
The updated plan will provide clear guidance for managing biosecurity risks and improving preparedness across the industry. Depending on industry priorities, the project may also develop a grower‑facing biosecurity manual to support on‑farm practices.
This project is a strategic levy investment in the Hort Innovation Summerfruit Fund
