National Surveillance Protocols
Technical Reference Guides
Last updated
Technical Reference Guides/TRGs (previously known as National Surveillance Protocols/NSPs) serve as the first point of reference for developing surveillance plans, and include information on surveillance methodology, pest/pathogen biology, taxonomy, identification and sample processing.
TRGs aim to achieve a coordinated plant health surveillance system that meets national and international requirements.
The process of TRG development is managed by the Subcommittee on National Plant Health Surveillance (SNPHS). SNPHS has endorsed NSPs for a range of pests, and a variety of additional draft TRGs are currently being progressed within the TRG workflow.
