Subject: FW: Seed Security concepts and indicators - #TCE-PROJECTS

Dear All,

 

As part of an ECHO funded project FAO has produced a discussion paper entitled “Household Seed Security Concepts and Indicators”.  This 9 page paper introduces an expanded and revised Seed Security Conceptual Framework (SSCF) together with a set of suggested indicators to measure changes in seed security parameters. In the revised SSCF, there are five pillars of household seed security:

·         seed availability;

·         seed access;

·          varietal preference and suitability;

·         seed quality;

·         resilience of the seed system.

 

The paper lays out the conceptual groundwork for development of enhanced  Seed Security Assessment (SSA) training materials, data collection tools and analysis. It is one of a family of SSA related products currently being finalised by the FAO SSA development team.”   

 

Please feel free to ask, comment or  suggest improvement to the concept and indications. The technical team accept constructive criticism as well.

 

 

Regards,

 

Joseph
