National Forest Pest Strategy

The National Forest Pest Strategy (NFPS) promotes collaboration between all parties involved in forest management and protection with the common goal of maintaining healthy forests and a sustainable forest sector. Through a common approach to pest risk analysis, the strategy seeks to enable forest managers across the country to make the most efficient use of up-to-date knowledge, expertise and technology. Under the NFPS, resources and knowledge at all jurisdictional levels are brought together to identify high-risk situations in Canada’s forests and then design the best approaches to manage those.
