This document outlines regulations regarding alien invasive species (AIS) in South Africa. It discusses the characteristics and impacts of AIS, including how they are easily spread and outcompete native species. The NEM:BA Act requires publishing a list of invasive species and categorizes them based on required actions - from immediate eradication to permits or exemptions. It details the duties of competent authorities to issue directives, notify land sales, and coordinate control programs. Violations may result in implementation of directives or cost recovery.

QUARANTINE AND POST-ENTRY QUARANTINE.pptxAjayDesouza V
Post-entry plant quarantine (PEQ) is a measure used to prevent the introduction and spread of plant pests and diseases into a country or region. It involves the inspection, testing, and treatment of imported plants and plant products to ensure that they are free from pests and diseases.
PEQ is typically conducted at designated quarantine stations, which are facilities that are equipped to isolate and inspect imported plants. The length of time that plants are held in quarantine depends on the type of plant and the risk of pests or diseases.
PEQ can be an effective way to prevent the introduction of new pests and diseases into a country or region. However, it can also be a costly and time-consuming process.
Here are some of the benefits of post-entry plant quarantine:
* It can help to prevent the introduction of new pests and diseases into a country or region.
* It can help to protect existing plant industries from pests and diseases.
* It can help to maintain the health of the environment.
Here are some of the challenges of post-entry plant quarantine:
* It can be costly to implement and maintain.
* It can be time-consuming to inspect and test imported plants.
* It can be difficult to ensure that all imported plants are properly inspected and tested.
Despite the challenges, post-entry plant quarantine is an important tool in the fight against plant pests and diseases. It can help to protect plant industries, the environment, and human health.
Here are some examples of plant pests and diseases that can be prevented by post-entry plant quarantine:
* **Pests:** Insects, mites, nematodes, and other organisms that can damage plants.
* **Diseases:** Fungal, bacterial, and viral diseases that can infect plants.
* **Weeds:** Plants that can compete with crops and spread pests and diseases.
Post-entry plant quarantine is an important part of a comprehensive plant protection program. By combining PEQ with other measures, such as inspection at ports of entry, certification, and eradication, it is possible to reduce the risk of plant pests and diseases and protect plant industries and the environment. Post-entry plant quarantine refers to the measures and procedures implemented after plants, plant products, or plant materials have entered a new country or region. The purpose of post-entry plant quarantine is to prevent the establishment and spread of potentially harmful pests and diseases that might have been inadvertently introduced during international trade or travel

Presentation on preventive measures of weed control.pptxSudha Neupane
Weeds have been known since the ancient times. Weed are unwanted plant that grow along with the main crop in the field. Weed are considered as cumbersome for successful agriculture production. Due to crop-weed competition the crop yield losses are generally high in agriculture production. So, in order to minimize such losses farmers are practicing several weed management strategies which includes prevention, eradication, control (mechanical, cultural, biological and chemical method). The cultural methods are expensive and time consuming so, farmer have to move towards other alternative methods of weed control Varga et.al (2000). Furthermore, due to rising labor cost and non-availability of labor for manual weeding during the critical period of weed control has contributed to use of herbicides. Herbicides not only timely and effectively controls the weed but also offer a great scope for minimizing the cost of production Varga et.al (2000). Control methods are applied after the emergence of weed on the field while prevention methods of weed control are adopted before sowing the crops. Generally, there are two objectives: 1. To prevent the entry and establishment of weed species in an area.2. To prevent the spread of weed or to limit the weed build up in a field.
These objectives are referred as prevention. And any method that are applied before sowing the crop to prevent there entry , establishment and spreads comes under the prevention category. Focusing on second objective of preventive measures of weed control we can say that some cultural methods such as crop rotation or crop diversification, stale seed bed, tillage system, cover crops ( used as green manures or dead mulches),soil solarization, irrigation and drainage systems and crop residues managements can be included under preventive methods of weed control. In practice, weed management strategies should integrate indirect (preventive) methods with direct (cultural and curative) methods. The first category includes any method used before a crop is sown, while the second includes any methods applied during a crop growing cycle. Methods in both categories can influence either weed density (i.e., the number of individuals per unit area) and/or weed development (biomass production and soil cover). However, while indirect methods aim mainly to reduce the numbers of plants emerging in a crop, direct methods also aim to increase crop competitive ability against weeds.The success of prevention depends on awareness of the problem, species, effort, Co-operation, area.
•Most effective where adopted against a single species on a large area on a cooperative basis.
In conclusion we can say that farmers have several preventive methods in their arsenal that they can put together to build up a good weed management strategy. Preventive weed control is permanent weed control and usually require community action. it. For this process, a collective or joint effort and commitment is required.
2. • Aliens SPP. moved to new habitats for various reasons e.g. ornamental
• Escape their predators and be able to out-compete the indigenous species
• Results = invasion where each individual produces massive numbers of
offspring that themselves live to reproduce.
3. Characteristics of aliens and invasive spp.
Vehicles as vectors for the spread of famine
weed in Ethiopia is obvious from the
distribution and road network.
• Easily spread by wind, its seeds are spread in car tyres and grills, by animals, by our clothing, etc.
• Establishing rapidly in new habitats, and especially in degraded areas.
• Reproduce quickly.
• it inhibits the growth of other plants through allelopathy (chemical secretions),
• Some can grow high, and produce tens of thousands of seeds per year.
• Can survive for long period e.g. famine weed seed are viable for over 50 years.
4. Characteristics of Aliens and invasive spp. cont
• Can course allergic reactions in humans. Poisonous to human and animals
• Destroy the reproductive potential of land for grazing
• Utilize lot of water
5. NEM:BA Regulation
• Section 70 of the NEM:BA states that, the Minister must publish by notice in
Gazette a national list of invasive spp.
• The NEM:BA Alien and Invasive Species Regulations and its associated
invasive species lists was published on 1 August 2014 and in forced on 01
October 2014.
