In order to ensure that crop and animals disease are not transferred across international boundaries, government must

  1. have programmes on agricultural education
  2. endeavours to produce only disease resistance species
  3. have and enforce quarantine service ✓
  4. increase survelliance of its border by security agents

Explanation

Quarantine stops sick animals and infected plants from entering the country. Officers inspect imports at borders, ports, and airports.

Education and disease-resistant crops help, but they cannot stop diseases already present in imported goods. Border security catches criminals, not plant diseases.

Quarantine is the direct barrier that keeps foreign diseases out.
