Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the agent should first quarantine the produce since it's coming from a targeted pest region. That is the produce should first be isolated and checked if the pest had affected the produce and if the produce are carriers or place of habitations for the pest. After these observations have been made, if non is negative, the agent can allow the produce into the region but if positive it should not be allow to avoid outbreak of pest infestation.
