Biosecurity Standard and Producer Guide

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), in collaboration with members of the Canadian Nursery Landscape Association has developed a voluntary farm-level biosecurity standard and follow-up producer guidance documents.

With support of AAFC, it is the objective of the Biosecurity Standard and Producer Guide to provide growers with practical and implementable management practices to manage the introduction and spread of plant pests.  The implementation of farm-level biosecurity in Canada protects the environment and the viability of the sector, resulting in significant economic benefits
