Seed aid needs to be improved. Case studies show seed-based agricultural recovery to be more complex than is commonly assumed. These Briefs offer advice on how to sustain and strengthen seed systems during disaster response and recovery periods. Up-to-date technical information addresses such issues as introducing new varieties, protecting agrobiodiversity, and exploiting market opportunities during periods of acute and chronic stress.
Specific aid-response tools are also offered, including methods for assessing seed system security, guidelines for learning-focused evaluations and checklists to ensure quality in seed aid proposal development.
