Phytosanitary risks associated with the global movement of forest products : a commodity-based approach / [by] Isabel Leal ... [et al.]; [published by] Pacific Forestry Centre. : Fo143-2/419E

Cover image

International trade in forest products constitutes an important component of the world’s economy. Forest products may have pests associated with them that pose phytosanitary risks and could have the potential to be introduced and become established into importing countries. These risks may result in the implementation of phytosanitary requirements that could affect trade. This report presents current knowledge of the phytosanitary threats and potential risk-reducing measures associated with the global trade in forest commodities. Commodities discussed include: round wood, sawn wood, wood chips (treated and untreated), and plant parts and live propagative materials.
