Guidelines for designing and optimising multi‐pest surveys in broadleaf trees

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: These guidelines have been developed in the context of EFSA's mandate on plant pest surveillance (M‐2020‐0114), at the request of the European Commission. Its purpose is to support the Member States in the planning and preparation of crop‐based surveys of regulated pests in line with Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/2072. In particular, the guidelines include the list of the broadleaved tree species reported as host of the regulated pests targeted by the grant GP/EFSA/ALPHA/2021/08 ‘Development of a crop‐based survey approach for pests of citrus and of broadleaved trees’.
