Crop Diversity
• The basis for productivity and resilience
of farming systems
• The raw material for crop improvement
• Conserved by farmers for millennia
• Endangered in many places
• Safeguarded in a global system of
genebanks, like...

• International organization
– Secretariat in Bonn, Germany from January 2013
• Policy guidance of ITPGRFA
– Essential element of funding strategy of Treaty
• Governed by Executive Board
– Treaty, Donors Council, FAO, CGIAR
• Endowment: long-term funding for genebanks
– Projects: to overcome key constraints

Oct. 2003, FAO CGRFA endorsed the establishment of the Crop Trust:
“…. on the joint efforts of FAO and the CGIAR to establish a Global Conservation Trust, to provide, in perpetuity, a flow of funds for ex situ conservation by national and international institutions … The Trust would operate in the framework of the International Treaty, and be an essential element of its Funding Strategy. The overall policy guidance to the Trust would come from the Governing Body of the Treaty.
This initiative was universally appreciated and supported, and appeals were made to donors to assist in the establishment of the Trust…”

International Treaty on
Plant Genetic Resources
• Calls for a global system for
conservation of crop diversity
• CGIAR genebank collections
covered under Article 15, replacing
earlier agreements with FAO
• Recognized as key component of
global system

• Conserving diversity that was
left behind during
domestication
• Making it available to farmers
through pre-breeding

Genebanks around the world
• rescue and safeguard crop diversity
• make it available to users such as
breeders and farmers
• study it and make information
about available for research and
crop improvement
• need reliable funding ensure the
long-term availability of diversity
