Stages in the PRA Scheme

Initiation Organised inventory of relevant datasets for

PRA (WP1) Reviews of best PRA practice worldwide

(WPs1-5) Enhanced and validated methods for:

Assessing spread and impacts (WP2) Ensuring consistency, managing uncertainty,

summarising risk and mapping endangered areas (WP3)

Screening species in pathway analysis and developing systems approaches (WP4)

Eradicating, containing and surveying pests (WP5)

User-friendly PRA scheme (WP6)

PRATIQUE: Partners

A multidisciplinary task force specialized in pest risk analysis, phytosanitary regulation, invasive alien species, ecology, economics and modelling.

Food and Environment Research AgencyFood and Environment Research Agency

Development of more efficient risk analysis techniques for pests and pathogens of

phytosanitary concern

Aims: to develop the science and provision of pest risk

analysis to explore the potential for new techniques to refine existing tools and management

EU 7th Framework Call Text

PRATIQUE and UPRs of the EU Importance of developing

partnerships under excellence for UPR-based research groups

Strong need of further implementation of PRAs for ‘tropical’ pests

Many major pests in UPRs are threats for the EU and are listed as quarantine organisms (2000/29EC)

Acquisition of data on biology and impact of pests in UPRs can prepare continental Europe to global changes (climate change…)

Excellence in agricultural research and biodiversity management in UPRs as a support of local agriculture

Operational follow-up of Pratique EFSA ‘Primaphacie’: leading the Xanthomonas citri pv. citri case study EFSA ‘citrus canker’ EWG Expertise for EPPO
