Abstract
Introducing new plants to an area may have both positive and negative effects on the environment, economy and community. To minimise the negative environmental impact of introducing new agricultural species, DPIRD conducts a risk assessment procedure based on widely accepted scientific standards. This report assesses Cushaw pumpkin (Cucurbita argyrosperma). Cushaw pumpkin (Japanese pie pumpkin) is a species of winter squash originally from the south of Mexico.
