DescriptionAlmekinders, C., 2003. Institutional changes for integrated manament of agricultural biodiversity. In: CIP-UPWARD, Conservation and sustainable use of agricultural biodiversity: a sourcebook. International Potato Center. Users' Perspectives with Agricultural Research and Development, Los Banos, Laguna, Philippines. p. 571-577.Recognition alone of the importance of agricultural biodiversity is not enough for its effective use and conservation. Farmers’ skills and capacity for sustainable agricultural production and access to resources must be developed. Agricultural research and development institutions must review their approaches and activities to support agricultural biodiversity management. Furthermore, linkages among institutions must be established and collaborative efforts must be sustained. Such undertaking also entails change within the organizational structure and culture of involved plant genetic resources (PGR) institutes. It asks for a different institutional culture in which there is space for participatory approaches and mutual learning.
