"INFORMATION TECHOLOGIES FOR FORECASTING AND
IPM STRATEGIES"
Project is based for upgrading
the capacity of the phytosanitary administration and complete
preparations for the practical application and enforcement of
the management mechanisms of phytosanitary and food safety
legislation and control.
MAFF and PARS have been building
integrated phytosanitary information system since 2002. Firstly
to support official registration for the purpose of plant
passports and phytosanitary certification. Further developing of
modules for plant health checks and outbreaks recording,
geographic distribution maps of harmful organisms and
international notification of interceptions depends on adequate
IT-equipment. Furthermore, a unified and integrated information
system for the phytosanitary sector, which links the areas of
plant health, plant seeds, plant protection products and the
registration of plant varieties is foreseen. Therefore for the
development of corresponding integrated information system,
connection and upgrading of the existing capabilities shall be
required, in particular on regional level and at official
laboratories.
