    Brief

    Defra seeks support to enhance pest risk analyses and emergency outbreak management capabilities by integrating climate science with plant pathogen expertise. This opportunity involves analyzing how future climate changes will affect UK plant pest and pathogen risks, using the latest climate monitoring and projection data combined with specialist knowledge of pest management. The project will develop an accessible web-based tool that helps identify which plant species and locations face the greatest risk from pests and pathogens under changing climate conditions, considering both large-scale climate impacts and local microclimate variations. This work supports the long-term development of an integrated climate-plant pest risk management system for the UK, improving Defra's ability to prepare for and respond to agricultural biosecurity threats.
