Media Release: 18 May 2009

On 1 March 2008, the CRC for National Plant Biosecurity partnered with 15 international agencies to form PRATIQUE, a consortium-under European funding-that will address major global challenges for pest risk analysis.

Our activity in PRATIQUE parallels our Preparedness and Prevention Research Program - to deliver the knowledge required to underpin decisions on the risk of entry, establishment and spread for emergency plant pests.
