| Abstract
|
:
|
A new approach to agricultural research and development is needed in order to conserve agricultural diversity, improve crops, and produce food of quality for all. This publication examines this new approach to agricultural research in light of 10 years of support by IDRC for projects promote agricultural biodiversity and participatory plant breeding. It examines key issues in detail, from the research questions, design of on-farm research to farmers' and plant breeders' rights. It argues for the development of new, supportive policies and legislation. A series of project stories illustrates.
