Ethiopia is a rare place where farmers still grow maslins - different grains sown in the same field or intercropped. Globally, they were mainly replaced by monocultures, but a small group of scientists hopes to change that. More via @atlasobscura ➡️ buff.ly/3MtLQ72
In the new part of our #SeedHeroes series, we celebrate the Irish scientist Erna Bennett, the pioneering plant geneticist who foresaw today's biodiversity crisis. Over 50 years ago, she coined terms like "genetic erosion" and "genetic conservation" 🌱 ➡️ buff.ly/3J9JNo7
🌱 Exciting news! 🎙Dive into our latest #SDGLearncast featuring Dr. Stefan Schmitz @StefanCropTrust, Executive Director of @CropTrust, as we explore the crucial role of seed banks in preserving agricultural biodiversity and securing our food future. 🎧unsdglearn.org/podcast/bankin…
Why do we need #genebanks? The loss of crop diversity has direct impacts not only on farmers 🚜 but also on the global #FoodSystems as a whole. Genebanks ensure that scientists can improve crops, securing them for future use. Learn more ➡️ buff.ly/3RYsHvv
The Crop Trust is looking for a team of two to three consultants to conduct the initial mid-term review of the 'Biodiversity for Opportunities, Livelihoods, and Development' (#BOLDcwr Project), focusing on Phase 1 activities (2021-2024). Find out more: buff.ly/3ue68d0
Farmers worldwide depend on their livestock, which depends on a year-round food supply. Researchers in #genebanks, therefore, work to make livestock systems more sustainable by conserving and using the diversity of forages. Learn more ➡️ buff.ly/3GFMcFm
How does the food brought back from extinction taste like? And why do we need more #cropdiversity on our plates? Find out from @DanSaladinoUK, who shares a fascinating food experience he had in Germany. Learn more ➡️ buff.ly/4asTk5f
Spent the past two days at @NordGen with colleagues from the Ukrainian PGR Center finalizing a strategy for long-term conservation of #PGRFA. In addition to scientists from Ukraine, participants included experts from @FAO @planttreaty @NordGen @CropTrust @bmel
Tea is one of the important crops that can't be stored in the Svalbard Global Seed Vault. It's best conserved in living field collections and that's why it's crucial to improve tea conservation in the #genebanks. Learn more about saving #tea 🍵 ➡️ buff.ly/3nw0nUh
How to request genebank accessions through @GenesysPGR? Many seeds with data in Genesys are available for research purposes, and Genesys can relay requests for material from the holding genebank to the user. Check out the step-by-step tutorial ➡️ buff.ly/3EQfhi7
