SEED PRODUCTION AND IMPROVEMENT: ASSESSMENT FOR THE CEEC, CIS AND OTHER COUNTRIES IN TRANSITION

摘要

The 1996 World Food Summit concluded that more assistance and realistic approaches in the agricultural sector are needed if food security were to be achieved and sustained in most developing countries, including most Central and Eastern European Countries (CEEC), the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) and other Countries in Transition (CT) (FAO, 1997). In response, the Rome Declaration on World Food Security, and the World Food Summit Plan of Action have established the foundation for diverse paths in guaranteeing food security. The strengthening of the seed supply sector is one of the main strategies for every region.
