Project description

In a context where food demand is increasing, it is essential to ensure access to high-quality seeds to encourage the adoption of sustainable and productive agricultural practices. This begins with ensuring the conservation and protection of genetic core seeds, followed by the development of a five-year seed plan to produce and supply the necessary quantities of certified seeds for both rain-fed and irrigated crops.
