The Convention was signed by 182 parties./p> The concept of plant protection at the international level goes back to 1881, when five States signed an agreement to control the spread of grape phylloxera, a North American aphid that was introduced to Europe in 1865 and then affected many viticultural areas of Europe./p> The next significant step was the International Plant Protection Convention signed in Rome in 1929, followed by the adoption in 1951 by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations of the International Plant Protection Convention - IPPC./p> The IPPC entered into force in April 1952, replacing all previous international agreements in the field of plant protection.

In 1995, IPPC participants requested a revision of the text of the Convention to reflect new phytosanitary concepts and the role of the IPPC in relation to the Uruguay Round agreements of the World Trade Organization and, in particular, the SPS Agreement./p> In the same year, the first three International standards on Phytosanitary measures (ISPM) were adopted at the FAO Conference - official, binding documents designed to help protect the world's plants and crop production from the spread of organisms harmful to plants./p> In accordance with the SPS Agreement, the IPPC develops international standards on phytosanitary measures that are applied by States in order to protect their plant resources from harmful organisms. At the same time, the justification of these measures is ensured and their use to create unjustified barriers to international trade is not allowed. In 1997, at the 29th FAO Conference, the new revised text of the IPPC was unanimously adopted, and in 2005 it entered into force./p> The current work programme of the IPPC Secretariat is to establish ISPM, exchange official information, build capacity and provide technical assistance./p>
