摘要

Seed is the future of agriculture. For farmers it is the most essential input: without good seed they have no chance of a good harvest. This is a simple truth but the implications are far-reaching. For thousands of years, farmers have been relying ontheir own harvests, selecting grains, storing them, and then using them as seed for the following season. They have been doing the same with potatoes and other vegetatively reproduced crops. By choosing seeds or planting materials that meet the needs oftheir particular farming conditions, they have, over time, developed local varieties and breeds which are most suited to their specific context and preferences. As a result, for example, there are thousands of rice varieties in South East Asia. Similarly, it is still common for a farmer in the Andes to know more than a hundred different varieties of potatoes and other tubers by name.
