Realising Farmers' Rights to Crop Genetic Resources: Success Stories and Best Practices
Farmers' Rights are essential for maintaining crop genetic diversity,
which is the basis of all food and agricultural production in the
world. The International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and
Agriculture recognizes Farmers' Rights and provides for relevant
measures. This book shows the necessity of realizing Farmers' Rights for
poverty alleviation and food security, the practical possibilities of
doing so, and the potential gains for development and society at large.
It provides decision-makers and practitioners with a conceptual
framework for understanding Farmers’ Rights and success stories showing
how each of the elements of Farmers' Rights can be realized in practice.
