2. Pest risk analysis (PRA) is “the process of evaluating biological or other scientific
and economic evidence to determine whether an organism is a pest, whether it
should be regulated, and the strength of any phytosanitary measures to be taken
against it” (IPPC, 2012).

by a pathway no pest associated
with that way is detected
No assessment is carried out,
this decision is reported

Example:
crops (e.g. loss of yield, or quality);
the environment, for example, damage to
ecosystems, habitats or species; or
some other specified value, e.g. recreation,

be proportional to the risk
identified.
