The original motivation was to protect against [[agricultural pest]]s while still allowing the export of agricultural products. In 1994 the first set of global standards were agreed to, including the [[Agreement on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures]] (SPS Agreement). These are overseen by the [[World Trade Organization]]. The [[International Maritime Organization]] oversees the International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments (the [[Ballast Water Management Convention]]). Although primarily targeted at other, more general environmental concerns, the [[Convention on Biological Diversity]] does specify some steps that its members should take to control invasive species. The CBD is the most significant international agreement on the environmental consequences of invasive species; most such measures are voluntary and unspecific.<ref name="Lodge-et-al-2016">{{cite journal |last1=Lodge |first1=David M. |last2=Simonin |first2=Paul W. |last3=Burgiel |first3=Stanley W. |last4=Keller |first4=Reuben P. |last5=Bossenbroek |first5=Jonathan M. |last6=Jerde |first6=Christopher L. |last7=Kramer |first7=Andrew M. |last8=Rutherford |first8=Edward S. |last9=Barnes |first9=Matthew A. |last10=Wittmann |first10=Marion E. |last11=Chadderton |first11=W.
