Opportunities
for farm seed conservation,
breeding and production

You are in: Home / The Project

Why we planned it

The overall objective of Farms Seed Opportunities

is to contribute to the enlargement of the market of local varieties, thus enhancing the possibilities of conservation, by setting up a science and marketing based framework involving all relevant actors, focusing on the development of methodologies for breeding strategies, facilitating the marketing* of seeds of landraces, conservation varieties and special ‘amateur’ varieties.

*"Marketing" must here be understood as a general term that includes production, use, exchange and selling
