Theoretical Basis of Phytosanitary Risk Management

The theoretical basis of phytosanitary risk management is based on the principles of risk assessment and risk management. Risk assessment is the process of identifying, assessing, and characterizing the risks associated with the and spread of pests and diseases of plants. Risk management is the process of developing and implementing measures to reduce the risks identified in the risk assessment.

The risk assessment process involves four steps:

1. Hazard identification: Identifying the pests and diseases that have the potential to cause harm to plants.
2. Hazard characterization: Assessing the likelihood and severity of the harm that could be caused by the pests and diseases.
3. Exposure assessment: Determining the likelihood that the pests and diseases will be introduced and spread to plants.
