VKM has assessed the risk that 69 plant pests pose to Norwegian plant health. None of them pose a very high or high risk, but six pose moderate risk.

The Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food and Environment (VKM) has assessed and ranked 69 plant pests that the European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organization (EPPO) recommends that member countries regulate as quarantine pests. These are organisms that can cause damage to plants and are currently not regulated in Norway. The assessment was commissioned by the Norwegian Food Safety Authority.
