Following a series of workshops, meetings and discussions with numerous stakeholders, the strategy was developed by industries, the Australian Government and the governments of Western Australia (WA), Northern Territory (NT) and Queensland. It paints a picture of the many industries active in the north and highlights what we risk losing, or impeding the development of, if exotic pests and diseases were to enter and become established in the growing regions of northern Australia.

Any unusual plant pest, disease or weed should be reported.
Reporting hotlines operate in both Australia and New Zealand (numbers shown below).
Australian Exotic Plant Pest Hotline
New Zealand Pest and Disease Hotline
Pests can also be reported using apps, such as MyPestGuide® for Australia, that allow you to submit a photo of the pest or symptoms.
Every report is taken seriously and handled confidentially. Management of calls varies in different areas, but to the same end.
The PSNAP program is currently being transitioned to the Australian Government Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF).
During this time, content will not be updated and membership requests may take longer to process.
Thank you for your patience and support while we complete this transition.
