Sustaining the traditional production and conservation of Creole rice seeds in Guinea Bissau

In order to preserve their tradition, the Manjaq communities have embarked on a process of preserving local rice varieties essential for the organization of certain traditional ceremonies. Faced with these challenges, they have rebuilt their seed capital by making an inventory of all traditional seeds and their importance in traditional ceremonies. Doing this through multi-stakeholder meetings (with a strong involvement of young people) is a practical means of transmitting and perpetuating knowledge in rural areas. These meetings therefore not only made it possible to make an inventory of traditional seeds and links with Manjaque traditions, but also to make a classifi cation of seeds to be disseminated in the four communities. Seed multiplication producers from the communities were identifi ed and trained in local seed production and distribution techniques
