Update on the situation of quarantine pests in the Russian Federation


The Coordinating Plant Quarantine Council of the Commonwealth of Independent States prepared a report gathering information on the situation of quarantine pests in their member countries as of January 1st, 2020. The EPPO Secretariat summarized the relevant information below for the Russian Federation and the associated data has been updated into EPPO Global Database. The country is divided in 85 federal subjects. For each pest, the number of federal subjects where it is present, and the surface of the established quarantine zones (these zones include the infested zones and the surrounding buffer zones) are given. When the occurrence of a pest in the country was not previously known to the EPPO Secretariat, this is indicated by an asterisk (*).
