摘要

Agrobiodiversity is a confluence of the past, present and future and both a tangible and intangible resource critical for both rural and urban food and nutrition security. Transformation in agricultural technologies, land and water use and urbanization has been largely responsible for its rapid erosion. In-situ conservation of crops and varieties within the context of communities is being increasingly recognized an important pathway for sustainable use of agrobiodiversity. The present article describes a C4 Approach that pay concurrent attention to conservation, cultivation, consumption and commerce of agrobiodiversity resources, conceptualized and operationalized by the M. S. Swaminathan Research Foundation in three agrobiodiversity hotspots of India. The C4 Approach consists of a series of village level interventions like establishment of gene-seed-grain banks, participatory conservation systems, participatory varietal selection, seed purification, promotion of farmer to farmer seed exchange, promotion of good agronomic and planting practices, use of small machinery for processing rice and millets at local level, product diversification and linking to markets for strengthening livelihoods as well as mainstreaming use of agrobiodiversity among urban consumers. Training and capacity development and institutionalization of the efforts through formation of grassroots institutions dovetailed with science-based interventions were important components aimed at sustaining the efforts.

Swaminathan研究基金会在印度的三个农业生物多样性热点地区进行概念化和实施的。 C4方法包括一系列村级干预措施,例如建立基因种子库,参与式保护体系,参与式品种选择,种子纯化,促进农民之间的种子交换,促进良好的农艺和种植习惯,小型机械,用于在地方一级处理大米和小米,产品多样化并与市场建立联系以加强生计,以及将农业生物多样性的使用纳入城市消费者的主流。通过建立基层机构并与科学为基础的干预相结合的培训,能力建设和努力的制度化,是维持这些努力的重要组成部分。
