Recently our visitors from Victoria declined taking bananas home because they can't take fruit over the boarder
We used to have tick gates at various points in country areas = an inspection point for livestock passing through, at that point also, any produce had to be declared.
In recent years East Coast Aust has had trouble with a disease on frangipani trees. And another major concern is a thing called Myrtle Rust.
