APHIS has drafted a pest risk assessment for the importation Fresh Pod of Pea (Pisum sativum) for consumption from Ethiopia. The assessment describes potential pests associated with the commodity.
APHIS shares draft pest risk assessments to determine whether stakeholders have information that might lead us to revise the draft assessment before we identify pest mitigations and proceed with the commodity import approval process. The draft pest risk assessment for fresh pod of pea will be available for review and comment until July 15, 2022. To view the assessment or submit comments, go to https://www.aphis.usda.gov/plant-health/risk-assessment-consultation.
