    What was it all about?

    From 2017 to 2022, this investment reviewed and updated the summerfruit industry’s biosecurity plan. The plan is a top-level document that identifies high-priority endemic and exotic pests, diseases and weeds, along with the risk mitigation activities required to reduce their biosecurity threat and surveillance and diagnostic activities. It provides a strategic framework for industry and government to work together to improve preparedness for and response to these potential threats.

    The current summerfruit biosecurity plan is available from the Plant Health Australia website.
