Prioritising non-native pest species to inform plant health biosecurity policy decisions and to safeguard agriculture, forestry, biodiversity, and livelihoods in Uganda

Frontiers in Agronomy
In recent years, various invasive species have been introduced to sub-Saharan Africa, partly due to insufficient information about potential invasions, which has led countries to respond reactively rather than proactively.

Assessing the threat: risk assessment of non-native plant pests likely to threaten livelihoods if introduced in Rwanda

Frontiers in Agronomy
The lack of information on potential invasions by alien species is a major contributor to the prevalence of invasions in sub-Saharan Africa. A rapid risk assessment was conducted to prioritise high-risk species not yet reported in Rwanda that could be ...

Risk assessment and forest pest management

The Forestry Chronicle, 1991
Prediction of potential harm, or risk assessment, is essential to planning for any vegetation management method, but the concepts and process are often not understood. This discussion is a highly simplistic description of the basic elements of toxicology and estimation of risk in excess of the high normal background.
