This paper aims to contribute to the discussion around typical features of NUS by critically analyzing the status of an expert-informed list of underutilized food crops in Latin America. It also discusses the extent to which existing international policy and legal frameworks dealing with wild and cultivated biological diversity effectively support the conservation and sustainable use of underutilized crops’ genetic resources.

This article discusses the integrated efforts for in situ/on-farm and ex situ conservation and use of agricultural biodiversity in southern Brazil.
Publication Year: 2014
Author: Rosa Lía Barbieri, João Carlos Costa Gomes, Adriana Alercia and Stefano Padulosi
This publication is the result of a research collaboration between Bioversity International and the Fundación para la Promoción e Investigación de Productos Andinos (PROINPA). It deals with issues regarding on-farm conservation of agrobiodiversity, which is a poorly addressed field of research in spite of its pivotal role in the maintenance of global crop diversity.
