The U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) is the primary government agency responsible for protection of domestic agricultural industries from pest or disease threats commonly known as phytosanitary threats. These threats may be introduced into the United States by imports or other means. APHIS carries out its protective responsibilities by establishing policies that regulate the trade of agricultural products. These trade regulations are based on an assessment of phytosanitary risks and science policies.
