Welcome to the National Clean Plant Network
The National Clean Plant Network (NCPN) was created to protect U.S. specialty crops such as grapes, fruit trees, citrus, berries, roses and sweetpotatoes from the spread of economically harmful plant pests and diseases. The NCPN will ensure the global competitiveness of U.S. specialty crop producers by creating high standards for our clean plant programs.
The economic benefit of starting with clean grapevine planting stock is more than $50 million per year in California's North Coast.

The NCPN operates under the auspices of three agencies within the United States Department of Agriculture - Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), Agricultural Research Service (ARS) and National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA).
