Purpose of research: Inventory & Assessment
The JKI provides information and advice to the BMEL for instance by making statements on new legislation (amendment to the Plant Health Act, Ordinance On Plant Protection). Furthermore, the JKI together with the plant health services elaborates guidelines on monitoring and control programmes of the Federal Länder. Participation of the JKI in EU and other international bodies helps to elaborate plant health standards and rules which are reflected in regulations and guidelines of Germany.
The Institute made statements and amendment proposals on all amendments to the Plant Health Act and the Ordinance on Plant Protection (3 statements on amendments to the Ordinance on Plant Protection in 2008). It elaborated guidelines on the monitoring of harmful organisms like PSTVd, Diabrotica virgifera, virgifera. Further guidelines on the basis of IPPC standards like the Guideline on International Trade in Wood Packaging (ISPM 15) and The Guideline on the Issuance of Plant Health Certificates in Germany (ISPM 22) support the harmonization of measures taken by the plant health services in Germany.
