Public policy-makers and scientists have expressed renewed interest in the prospects for on-farm conservation of crop genetic resources in recent years, but understanding of the economic incentives for and mechanisms through which programmes might best be implemented remains sketchy. Working thro...

The economics of conserving agricultural biodiversity on-farm: Proceedings of a Workshop hosted by the Institute for Agrobotany (IA), Hungary and the International Plant Genetic Resources Institute (IPGRI), Italy, Gödöllo, Hungary, May 13-16, 2002
In August, 1997, IPGRI, organized a workshop on how to develop tools and procedures of data collections and analyses for its ongoing global in situ conservation programme in the nine partner countries. In the workshop scientists, project leaders and researchers of various disciplines from the nin...

Crop genetic diversity in the field and on the farm: principles and applications in research practices
Farmers continue to grow traditional crop varieties, along with now-creolized varieties released decades ago. The absence of modern varieties is due to the failure of conventional plant breeding to meet production/cultural needs, difficult access to new varieties, and inadequate safety-nets for t...
