Factors that reflect complexity include communications with animal and plant health authorities in countries within the area of responsibility, the number of host countries, variety of agricultural commodities, variations in geographic areas in terms of climate and terrain and its impact on commodity availability, economic and political considerations between host countries and the U.S., and the expansion of U.S. trade with foreign nations.

For this reason, the employee must master the relevant history, current dynamics of the region, and be able to recognize trends and forecast possible future scenarios.
- Education Requirements:
Master’s degree in agriculture, biology, entomology, veterinary science, or related is required.
- Evaluations:
LANGUAGE: Fluency in English and another European language. This may be tested.
