Develop Resilient Seed Production Systems for Food Security
Global seed production is concentrated in few regions, making food systems vulnerable to climate disasters and geopolitical disruptions. The challenge is creating distributed seed production systems that ensure reliable access to quality seeds globally. Barriers include technical expertise requirements, quality control challenges, and regulatory frameworks. Without resilient seed systems, food production could collapse if major seed-producing regions face disasters. Successful distributed seed production could ensure food security even during global disruptions while supporting local varieties and farmer independence, potentially involving millions of farmers in seed production worldwide.
