IPPC

The International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) is a global treaty aimed at protecting plant health from pests and diseases. It promotes cooperation among countries to prevent the spread of harmful organisms through international trade, ensuring that traded plants and plant products are safe. The IPPC establishes standards for inspecting, certifying, and managing plant health risks, helping to safeguard agriculture, ecosystems, and economies worldwide. It facilitates information exchange and coordinated responses to plant health threats, supporting sustainable and secure global trade in plant materials.
