Specific scope The purpose of this Standard is to recommend to EPPO Member countries the phytosanitary measures which they should use or require for seed and ware potatoes moving in international trade to prevent the introduction and spread of quarantine pests. Farm‐saved seed is not covered because it is not grown under an official certification scheme and should not be traded. The recommended phytosanitary measures for A1 pests are addressed to all EPPO Member countries and those for A2 pests are aimed at countries where the pest does not occur or is not widely distributed. These recommendations are derived from the phytosanitary measures included in EPPO Standard PM 1/2 ( EPPO A1 and A2 Lists), EPPO Standards PM 2 (pest‐specific phytosanitary measures, which were withdrawn in 2006) and Pest Risk Analyses (PRAs). Specific approval and amendment First approved in 2004‐09. Revised in 2017‐09
