Genetic Resources Strategy for Europe

The Genetic Resources Strategy for Europe is a policy framework for securing genetic resources for food, agriculture and forestry in the region. It presents a vision for improved genetic resources management in Europe and includes an Action Plan to pave the way towards its implementation. Crucially, the strategy will increase awareness of the importance of genetic resources for sustainable and resilient agriculture and forestry in the region and the imperative for adequate and long-term financing for their management.
