The Glossary of Phytosanitary Terms (ISPM 5)

February 06, 2026

ISPM 5, the Glossary of Phytosanitary Terms, serves as a foundational reference for harmonized terminology under the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC). It ensures a shared understanding of key terms, promoting clarity and consistency across languages and regions. This strengthens global cooperation in plant health, supporting effective pest prevention, safe trade, and the protection of plant resources worldwide.
