Diplomatic gift by Japan of Cherry trees to the United States at USDA Beltsville, Maryland plant inspection station to thoroughly inspects the trees on 9 April 2024

Summary[edit]

Description
English: On April 9, USDA staff at the Beltsville, MD, plant inspection station thoroughly inspects the trees in accordance with USDA’s requirements to confirm they are free of invasive plant pests and diseases that could harm U.S. agriculture and natural resources. APHIS does not allow the importation of cherry trees due to the risk of plant diseases and plant pests. However, APHIS made it a priority to allow the safe importation of these trees under controlled conditions due to the historical significance of this diplomatic gift. (The original cherry trees given by Japan led to the passage of the Plant Quarantine Act of 1912, the first national legislation regulating the movement of plants to protect agriculture and natural resources.)
