Seed systems in seed multiplication by resource-limited farmers
Year: 2004
One major step towards achieving food security in developing countries is to improve their ability to achieve seed security. While seed supply channels of commercial agriculture are usually operational even during emergencies, the seed system of subsistence crops, although resilient, is often fragile and unable to fulfill seed needs. This situation is prevalent in many Latin American countries, particularly in those with many resource-limited farmers.
