7772), the Secretary of Agriculture is
authorized to prohibit or restrict the
importation of plants, plant products,
and plant pest and other articles to

in 7 CFR part 319 include a certification
program for articles of Pelargonium spp.
and Solanum spp. imported from
countries where the bacterium Ralstonia

compliance agreements. If the
information is not collected, potato
fields could become infected with the

drastically reduce or eliminate potato
fields.
