CPMA (Canadian Produce Marketing Association) has agreed to work with CFIA's Plant Health and Biosecurity Directory to survey our members requesting input on priorities for opening new markets for the importation of new products into Canada. The approval of new products from new origins requiring a Pest Risk Analysis (PRA) can be a long, complex process for which CFIA receives many requests.
Going forward, CPMA has agreed to provide our Pest Risk Analysis (PRA) prioritization preferences to CFIA on an annual basis.
This is an opportunity for the QPMA members to help determine Canada's Pest Risk Analysis (PRA) prioritization preferences for 2020.
