Overview

Crop biodiversity is the variety of plants and animals used for food, fiber, and other purposes. It is essential for sustaining food security, improving nutrition, and protecting the environment. Crop biodiversity also provides a wide array of genetic resources that can help develop new varieties that are better suited for specific climatic conditions and growing systems. Farmers can benefit from the increased ability to produce better yields, reduce the need for inputs such as water and fertilizer, and protect against the effects of climate change. Crop biodiversity is also significant for preserving the planet's precious biodiversity, and for providing the genetic resources important to developing new and improved varieties.
