This strategy sets out the Scottish Government (SG)’s1 approach to the protection of the health of plants (agricultural & horticultural crops, plants in parks and gardens, forestry and the natural environment) in Scotland. The strategy focuses on risks associated with plant pests2 and links with other work on the health of plants such as agronomy and soil health. It does not address animal health, land use or damage by vertebrate pests or other invasive species, which are covered by different national and European legislation. The strategy covers the SG’s role and how stakeholders (public bodies, industry, NGOs, academia, landowners and the general public) will work with government to protect the health of plants.
