A Program for Producers

BioSecure HACCP is the on-farm biosecurity program for production nurseries in Australia. The program validates many of the best management practice strategies employed under the Nursery Industry Accreditation Scheme Australia (NIASA). It seeks to identify internal and external (endemic and exotic) threats to the integrity of a business’s biosecurity processes and preparedness.

BioSecure HACCP is a set of protocols and procedures that enables a business to manage biosecurity risks establishing an effective internal quarantine process for both imported and exported plant material. The BioSecure HACCP risk management system encourages industry businesses to maintain the strictest internal quarantine procedures possible and record the actions taken at critical control points. Having a sound risk management strategy such as this ensures industry businesses remain protected from biological risks.
