Galluzzi, GeaHalewood, MichaelLópez Noriega, IsabelVernooy, Ronnie[Keeping germplasm flowing]Keeping germplasm flowing

Key messages: Network analysis provides a mechanism to both understand how information and communication structures vary across sites, and to identify opportunities for intervening in ways that may improve communication flows. Farmer-expert network structures differ between Lushoto and Rakai. Fa...

These guidelines are meant to help the CGIAR Centers understand which areas of their plant genetic resources-related activities could be affected by the Nagoya Protocol, and what their options are in terms of how they can comply with the legal obligations. The guidelines address situations where ...

Estimates suggest that globally 80% of the seeds on which smallholder farmers in developing countries depend are produced by the farmers themselves or obtained through informal channels. This high level of farmer seed autonomy masks the fact that almost everywhere local seed systems and the diver...


Vernooy, RonnieHalewood, MichaelLópez Noriega, I.Galluzzi, Gea[New strategies and partnerships for the sustainable use of plant genetic resources]New strategies and partnerships for the sustainable use of plant genetic resources

This brief highlights efforts in East Africa and in Asia, Pacific and Oceania (APO), supported by two internationally funded projects, to develop user-friendly tools and methods to identify germplasm of populations/varieties/species that are adapted to the changing climates of areas where farmers...


Halewood, MichaelMathur, P.N.Fadda, CarloOtieno, G.[Using crop diversity to adapt to climate change: highlighting the importance of the Plant Treaty's policy support]Using crop diversity to adapt to climate change: highlighting the importance of the Plant Treaty's policy support

The Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (the Commission), at its Tenth Regular Session, recommended that the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the Commission contribute to further work on access and benefit-sharing, in order to ensure that it m...


Fujisaka, S.Williams, D.Halewood, Michael[The impact of climate change on countries’ interdependence on genetic resources for food and agriculture]The impact of climate change on countries’ interdependence on genetic resources for food and agriculture

Recent decades have witnessed an ever-increasing range and volume of digital data. All elements of the pillars of science--whether observation, experiment, or theory and modeling--are being transformed by the continuous cycle of generation, dissemination, and use of factual information. This is e...


Halewood, Michael[Options for governing the microbial commons]Options for governing the microbial commons

This technical study focuses on the role of micro-organism genetic resources for agriculture and the influence of a changing climate. Agriculture is defined as crop-based food production for yield and quality. It excludes micro-organism genetic resources associated with livestock, fish and non-fo...
