title: Community-based agrobiodiversity systems for the realisation of Farmers’ Rights
Creators: name: ITPGRFA Secretariat
Publisher: name: ITPGRFA
Year: 2025
Subjects: subject: AGROVOC: Access and benefit sharing

description: The Development Fund (DF) has supported local initiatives on conservation and sustainable use of plant genetic resources and the strengthening of Farmers’ Rights for almost two decades in collaboration with local partners in Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Nepal, Ethiopia and Malawi. These programmes, designed in a collaborative way involving farmers’ and civil society organizations and research institutes, started between 2003 and 2009. The main objective was to strengthen community-based agrobiodiversity systems in order to improve food security and climate adaptive capacity. The programmes followed a holistic approach, and included measures such as Participatory Plant Breeding, Participatory Variety Selection, recovery and rehabilitation of lost varieties, Community Seed Banks, capacity building on Farmers’ Rights, participation of farmers in decision-making, and advocacy at local, national and international level. Main outcomes were improved food security and livelihoods among poor rural households. More than 46,000 farmers and their families increased their access to seeds through a network of 81 Community Seed Banks. Sixty-nine new varieties were developed through Participatory Plant Breeding, resulting in increased yields for maize, beans, sorghum, rice and wheat by at least 25%. Civil society and farmer organizations gained space in decision-making at local level, and in some cases at national level.

Subjects: subject: AGROVOC: Participatory approaches

description: The national agricultural research organization Instituto Nacional de Ciencias Agrícolas (INCA), in collaboration with several other public research institutes, universities, NGOs, local government units and financial support by the International Development Research Centre (IDRC), has engaged in participatory plant breeding (PPB) since 1999. The first project started with few farmers from three municipalities in two provinces, and was expanded to 11 provinces. Initially, it covered only beans and maize, and later, it included other crops such as, grains, vegetables, fruit trees, roots and tubers. Core components of PPB include collaboration between farmers and scientists. Farmers are actively involved in priority setting, selection, evaluation, and dissemination activities. The resulting varieties are adapted to local soil and climate conditions. Hundreds of varieties distributed to the farmers and today form part of the Cuban ‘agricultural landscape’. The initiative generated a national movement favoring local innovation and demonstrated the potentials of empowering farming communities in terms of quantity and quality crop production. Farmers’ involvement in the selection and experimentation work has also facilitated the revaluation of their knowledge, inducing reforms in the research sector and higher education system in Cuba.

description: The Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers Right Act, 2001 (PPV&FR Act) is an Act of the Parliament of India to establish an effective system for the protection of plant varieties, the rights of farmers and plant breeders, and to encourage the development and cultivation of new varieties of plants. The Act safeguards the interest of farmers/communities/rural/tribal peoples who are engaged in the conservation and improvement of plant genetic resources through various provisions; for example, it recognizes farmers as breeders; they are entitled to be awarded, recognized and rewarded every year; farmers (women and men) and tribal peoples are represented in the standing committee of the PPV&FR Authority; farmers, as well as communities, are entitled for the registration of farmers’ varieties and for benefit-sharing through a national ‘Gene Fund’.  Farmers further enjoy rights to save, use, sow, re-sow, exchange, share or sell their farm produce, including seed of a registered variety under the Act, but they are not entitled to sell branded seeds of such varieties. Guidelines were developed that address specific issues relating to the registration of farmer varieties, including ‘ownership’ of such varieties, degree of uniformity and exemptions from fees.

description: The decay $B \to ρ\ell \barν$ is an attractive process for determining the magnitude of the smallest CKM matrix element, $|V_{ub}|$, and can provide new insights into the origin of the long-standing exclusive-inclusive discrepancy in determinations of this Standard-Model parameter. This requires a nonperturbative QCD calculation of the $B \to ρ$ form factors $V$, $A_0$, $A_1$, and $A_{12}$. The unstable nature of the $ρ$ resonance has prevented precise lattice QCD calculations of these form factors to date. Here, we present the first lattice QCD calculation of the $B \to ρ$ form factors in which the $ρ$ is treated properly as a resonance in $P$-wave $ππ$ scattering. To this end, we use the Lellouch-Lüscher finite-volume formalism to compute the $B \to ππ$ form factors as a function of both momentum transfer and $ππ$ invariant mass, and then analytically continue to the $ρ$ resonance pole. This calculation is performed with $2+1$ dynamical quark flavors at a pion mass of approximately 320 MeV, and demonstrates a clear path toward results at the physical point.

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: This thesis contributes to understanding more about intermediaries – organisations that sit in between things and help innovation happen. New institutional theory was applied to examine an intermediary developing a marketplace where positive social and environmental outcomes can occur through business transactions in Victoria, Australia. Findings from 43 semi-structured interviews were thematically analysed and cross-checked with secondary data. The intermediary was found to be performing four core roles concurrently: Gatekeeper; Activist; Conductor; and Educator. A model of intermediation is presented featuring: two-way relationships; organisations and individual people acting independently of the intermediary; and collaboration between intermediaries.

description: The Instituto de Investigaciones Fundamentales en Agricultura Tropical ‘Alejandro de Humboldt' (INIFAT), together with other governmental and non-governmental organizations, has engaged in the development of innovative mechanisms for the valorisation and certification of quality products with territorial identity in the Biosphere Reserves. Since this approach was new for the Cuban context, a preliminary methodology was elaborated based on lessons learned through a Diploma course in Territorial Development with Cultural Identity in Chiloé, Chile, in which a representative from Cuba participated in 2013. ‘Biocultural identity maps’ were then elaborated for the Biosphere Reserves ‘Sierra del Rosario’ and ‘Cuchillas del Toa’. This methodology allows to ‘draw’ the territory in its historical, cultural, economic and ecological dimensions, and on this basis to develop and implement a ‘basket’ of goods and services carrying the biocultural identity; local stakeholders take a leading role in identifying elements that should be included in the map and in establishing requirements for access to labels and seals. The final bulletin, accompanied by interviews with stakeholders, allows to visualize the activities that are carried out by each of them, and to guide tourists on their way to explore the products and services derived.

description: The national agricultural research institute Instituto Nacional de Ciencias Agrícolas (INCA) has been involved in several participatory plant breeding (PPB) projects between 1999 and 2006. In 2005, the first corn variety developed through PPB in Cuba was included in the official list of varieties under the name `Felo´. This variety was developed based on a combination of local materials by a member of the Cooperativa de Producción Agropecuaria (CPA) Gilberto León, municipality of San Antonio de los Baños in the province of Artemisa, where the first participatory corn breeding fair was held in June 1999. A process of mass selection (five cycles) followed, considering traits such as plant height, good closure of the ear and absence of fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda). A nutritional analysis showed satisfactory protein (9.0 and 9.3%) and starch (71 and 73%) contents. Yields obtained were around 3.4t/ha without fertilizer application. This example demonstrates the importance of varieties conserved by farmers for breeding purposes; among them, varieties of corn with high nutritional quality were identified, which have been developed in low-input production systems and without using techniques such as genetic engineering.

description: The Regional Organization for the Protection of the Marine Environment (ROPME) Sea Area (RSA) in the northern Indian Ocean, which comprises the Gulf, the Gulf of Oman and the northern Arabian Sea, already experiences naturally extreme environmental conditions and incorporates one of the world’s warmest seas. There is growing evidence that climate change is already affecting the environmental conditions of the RSA, in areas including sea temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, pH, and sea level, which are set to continue changing over time. The cumulative impacts of these changes on coastal and marine ecosystems and dependent societies are less well documented, but are likely to be significant, especially in the context of other human stressors. This review represents the first regional synthesis of observed and predicted climate change impacts on marine and coastal ecosystems across the ROPME Sea Area and their implications for dependent societies. Climate-driven ecological changes include loss of coral reefs due to bleaching and the decline of fish populations, while socio-economic impacts include physical impacts from sea-level rise and cyclones, risk to commercial wild capture fisheries, disruption to desalination systems and loss of tourism. The compilation of this review is aimed to support the development of targeted adaptation actions and to direct future research within the RSA.

description: Between 2005 and 2007, the Instituto de Investigaciones Fundamentales en Agricultura Tropical ‘Alejandro de Humboldt’ (INIFAT) and several other organizations from Cuba were involved in a regional project ‘Adaptive management of seed systems and gene flow for sustainable agriculture and livelihood improvement in the humid tropics of Mexico, Cuba and Peru’, supported by Bioversity International and the International Development Research Centre (IDRC). Within the framework of this project, several traditional varieties were registered in the name of a farmer representing the locality, with the aim to recognize the work done by these farmers for the conservation of traditional varieties. The varieties registered include ‘Enano pinto’, a variety of Lima bean (Phaseolus lunatus), registered by a farmer from Yateras, Guantánamo Province, in 2006; and two varieties of chillies and peppers (Capsicum spp.), one called ‘Cachuchita’, registered by a farmer from La Munición, Guantánamo province, in 2007; and another one called ‘Angolano’, registered by a women farmer from Artemisa, Artemisa province, in 2007. The official registration of these varieties is a step forward on the way towards the protection of local PGRFA with potential for commercialization, based on recognition of the communities from where they originated.

Federal enforcement actions typically involve the assessment of a monetary penalty against seed companies that ship mislabelled seed in violation of the law.  The FSA requires that seed shipped in interstate commerce be labelled with information that allows seed buyers to make informed choices. Seed labelling information and advertisements pertaining to the seed must be truthful. The FSA helps promote uniformity among state laws and fair competition within the seed trade.

description: Reparations, my first collection of poems, is a book in which I pay homage to my African ancestors by striving, through poetry, to repair the spiritual, mental, and physical damage that I have experienced and continue to experience via personal and societal ideologies. Though Reparations cannot totally restore me, I believe poetry can aid my efforts at self-restoration and help me honor my ancestors, their determination to overcome all odds. I believe Reparations can work to provide some repair because the act of writing a poem forces the poet to reflect on his or her life.

Focusing on issues such as race relations during and after slavery, the degradation of the black woman, the black and white male's struggle for identity, black pride, and the recurring/overpowering evil of racism, Reparations strives to educate and entertain its readers. This manuscript utilizes forms such as the persona poem, spoken-word, the pantoum, the villanelle, the couplet, and free verse in hopes of taking the reader on a hard­ hitting, captivating spiritual and emotional journey. During this journey I would like the reader to overhear the legendary Nat Turner confess, whites swear "that as they look/ at me I their blood/ curdles in their veins." Almost two centuries later, the reader will hear me ask, "Who thinks afrocentricity means/ fuck white people? / Who continues to fuck/ over their own people?" Indeed, Reparations is a collection of poems that honestly examines the complexities of race and justice in America, a collection that asks people to reflect on the positive and negative aspects of society, to reevaluate their lives.

description: Hyperbilirubinemia represents a spectrum of clinical syndromes characterized by elevated bilirubin levels in the bloodstream, reflecting diverse underlying hepatic, hemolytic, or metabolic disorders. This expanded study evaluates the clinical forms and management strategies for hyperbilirubinemia in a diverse cohort of 200 patients, segmented into physiological, pathological, hemolytic, and obstructive categories. Advanced laboratory diagnostics, imaging techniques, and therapeutic interventions including phototherapy, pharmacotherapy, and surgical approaches were analyzed. The research demonstrates how specific patterns of bilirubin metabolism correlate with disease severity, helping clinicians optimize care pathways. Emphasis is placed on early detection, etiological classification, and integrated therapeutic planning to prevent bilirubin-induced complications such as kernicterus and hepatic failure.

description: Indigenous peoples have lived in harmony with the natural world for thousands of years, developing unique ways of understanding and interacting with their surroundings. This knowledge, often passed down through oral tradition, encompasses a wide range of information about the environment, culture, and history of their communities. Since the Paris Agreement of 2015 (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change [UNFCCC], 2015), there has been growing recognition of the importance of preserving and utilising this indigenous knowledge to improve the lives of indigenous peoples and protect the planet’s natural resources. However, to fully harness the potential of this knowledge, it is essential to decolonise current practices and ensure that indigenous knowledge systems are authentically respected and treated as equal to scientific knowledge in addressing global challenges.

description: This research introduces a new model for productivity measurement that can be applied to any type of production environment, including various production environments, such as agriculture, different industries, or banking services. The model is capable of comparing the productivity levels of one production unit with other units and with itself over time. For example, the proposed approach in this thesis can be used to measure productivity changes in the Australian banking system. This will enable us to track how the productivity level of a specific bank changes over time compared to other banks and its own previous performance.

The first seed and biodiversity fairs were organized in the Biosphere Reserves ‘Sierra del Rosario’ and ‘Cuchilla del Toa’ in 1999; culinary fairs started from 2003 onwards in Sierra del Rosario and other locations. The objective of the seed and biodiversity fairs is to encourage the exchange and selling of seeds among farmers. These fairs allowed farmers from different regions of the country to participate and to engage in knowledge sharing and seed exchanges. While at the culinary fairs, women have played their fundamental role and showed their knowledge and skills in preparing various traditional foods. The fairs have resulted to recovering and reviving various traditional foods that are associated with certain regions, festivities and celebrations and times of the year. It stimulated creativity and interest by showing the range of culinary uses.  The fairs highlight the need to link conservation of crop diversity with food dishes or family meals. Also, found important to share this knowledge with larger population groups.

description: The Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers’ Rights Authority (PPV&FRA) has been established by the Government of India under the Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers’ Rights Act (PPV&FR Act), 2001. The Authority, under the provision of section 45 of PPV&FR Act, 2001 Rule 70 (2) (a), has instituted Recognition and Rewards from the ‘Gene Fund’, a national instrument for benefit-sharing. The objective of this provision is to recognize the efforts of farmers and farming communities engaged in the conservation of PGRFA so that such farmers and farming communities are encouraged to continue their activities and their genetic resources can be explored for further use, e.g. for contributions to food security. Recognition and rewards conferred annually under this provision include: (1) ‘Plant Genome Saviour Community Award’; (2) ‘Plant Genome Saviour Farmer Reward’; and (3) ‘Plant Genome Saviour Farmer Recognition’. All three consist of a cash sum paid, a citation and a memento. These awards have raised awareness amongst the farmers and their communities about the importance of conservation and sustainable use of PGRFA. They can also contribute to increasing demand for traditional varieties, resulting in additional opportunities for awardees to generate income or raise additional funds for conservation activities.

description: WTO Members have complete freedom to develop sui generis plant variety protection (PVP) systems that recognize and support farmer managed seed systems and implement Farmers’ Rights. Hence several countries, including India and Malaysia have opted to depart significantly from the one-size fits all model of UPOV 1991 and adopted effective, innovative national PVP legislation, implemented through the PVP authority of each country, that includes unique features to balance the interests of commercial breeders, farmers and the public, as well as advances the key requirements of the ITPGRFA, the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and the Nagoya Protocol. India’s ‘Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers’ Rights Act’ (2001) grants PVP protection while recognizing rights of farmers to save, use, sow, re-sow, exchange, share or sell their farm produce, including seed of a protected variety. Many other measures in the legislation that protect farmers’ interests and needs. Malaysia’s ‘Protection of New Varieties of Plants Act’ (2004) includes provisions that recognize farmers’ seed systems with distinct criteria for registration of farmer variety: "new, distinct and identifiable". Both legislations include disclosure obligation, i.e. a PVP applicant to declare the source of the genetic material and present evidence of prior informed consent and benefit sharing.

They serve as subject matter experts to guide curatorial staff on best practices, including the priorities and techniques for characterizing the collections. They also help review proposals that fund plant explorations and evaluate grants for scientific rigor. The first CGCs were established in the mid-1980s as outgrowths of commodity-specific crop improvement/breeding conferences; while initial CGCs covered primarily the major agricultural commodities (grains, pulses, oilseeds), there are currently 43 CGCs representing almost all major and minor crops of economic importance in the United States. Each committee includes a chair and members from government agencies, universities, and commercial interest groups, such as commodity groups and farmers/producers, who volunteer their time and expertise to support the NPGS.

description: The Instituto de Investigaciones Fundamentales en Agricultura Tropical ‘Alejandro de Humboldt' (INIFAT), in collaboration with local organizations in the Biosphere Reserves ‘Sierra del Rosario’ and 'Cuchilla del Toa' and with financial support by the International Development Research Centre (IDRC), participated in the project ‘Adaptive management of seed systems and gene flow for sustainable agriculture and subsistence improvement in the humid tropics of Mexico, Cuba and Peru’ (2003-2006). As part of the project activities, a catalogue of traditional varieties was established with the aim to facilitate learning on agrobiodiversity, promote seed exchanges and acknowledge the participating farmers. The use of variety names was found not always to be consistent within and among communities, or across regions; for this reason, other descriptors should also be used to ensure that the diversity and spatial distribution of varieties is correctly documented. The initiative was very well received by the farmers and allowed to sensitize decision-makers for the level of agrobiodiversity that existed in certain localities. This type of action should be expanded to arrive at a national catalogue as well, in order to enhance visibility of agrobiodiversity and acknowledge farmers.

description: RESUMO

 

Este trabalho apresenta os resultados de uma pesquisa que objetivou investigar como vem sendo a prática de leitura e escrita dos estudantes de Direito no âmbito acadêmico, tendo em vista as características apresentadas após o ingresso acadêmico. No que diz respeito à metodologia, a pesquisa foi bibliográfica e seguiu a abordagem qualitativa. Articulando as pesquisas realizadas, construiu-se reflexões sobre o tema ―a importância da leitura e escrita no ensino superior e suas relações com o Curso de Direito. As informações obtidas nos deram condições para entender que é necessário observar a importância da leitura em todos os âmbitos como meio de acesso e produção do conhecimento, porém, todo o reconhecimento transmitido neste artigo, pode não representar a prática da leitura em si, visto que a compreensão da leitura refere-se à estrutura do texto e se dá por meio da decodificação de signos (letras e palavras), mas a interpretação exige além da mera decodificação, é preciso entender o verdadeiro sentido do que foi lido e o que e para quem se escreve. Ao concluir a pesquisa, os dados nos revelam uma grande preocupação de que os alunos de Direito só estão lendo o que é proposto em sala de aula e que não existe incentivo de nenhuma das partes para que ocorra uma mudança nesse cenário.

Development of Liquid Crystalline Elastomeric Composites with Enhanced Shape Memory Characteristics
Creators: name: Prathumrat, Peerawat
Publisher: name: Swinburne

description: New liquid crystalline elastomeric (LCE) composites were developed through experimental and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations for shape memory applications. Lignin was utilised as a sustainable and cost-effective choice of fillers to improve shape memory and relevant intensive properties of the composite materials. MD simulations, as computational techniques, were exploited to comparatively study force fields to precisely capture the dynamics and structures and investigate the curing behaviour of modelled LCE. The processability of these materials was established with further fabricating with thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) through additive manufacturing technology for scalability and volume production in the future.

description: Cardiovascular disease is one of the most prevalent causes of death worldwide, and early detection is crucial to prevent additional deaths and to increase survival rates. Conventional diagnosis by examining electrocardiograms (ECG), blood and clinical approach is time-consuming and expensive methods, which are prone to human error. A Heart Disease Prediction System leveraging various Machine Learning algorithms including Logistic Regression and Support Vector Machine predicts patient risk pretty accurately.

The system is trained on the UCI Cleveland Heart Disease Dataset, comprising 10,000 patients with recorded ages, cholesterol, blood pressure, heart rate, and blood sugar values. Data preprocessing methods, including how to handle missing value, normalizing and feature selection, help improving the effectiveness of model. The system reaches the accuracy of 87.5% which is better than that of typical diagnosis.

description: Since 1995, through a series of projects, the Instituto de Investigaciones Fundamentales en Agricultura Tropical ‘Alejandro de Humboldt' (INIFAT), together with other government and non-government organizations, has engaged in in situ conservation activities in two Biosphere Reserves. In the first year of each project, the research team would conduct a diagnosis to identify training needs; this course of action has allowed them to develop short courses, workshops and brochures to address farmers’ needs. Such as, workshops to consolidate knowledge on seed production and storage, soil management and seed storage and conservation; promotion of knowledge sharing and exchange of experiences among all participants; dissemination of successful experiences, all of which, are conducted in a participatory manner This has allowed to strengthen and revive traditional knowledge in the communities where projects have been implemented. The continuous sharing of knowledge and exchange of experiences between and among farmers and researchers has laid the ground for identifying gaps that need to be filled in the short and medium term in these rural areas to better focus training activities and/or new interventions that promote the conservation and sustainable use of agrobiodiversity in the country.

description: Background Solid transplant patients are susceptible to Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). While the vast majority of PJP cases occur within the first 6 months after transplantation, very few PJP cases are seen beyond 1 year post-transplantation (late-onset PJP). PJP and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19, caused by infection with SARS-CoV-2) share quite a few common clinical manifestations and imaging findings, making the diagnosis of PJP often underappreciated during the current COVID-19 pandemic. To date, only 1 case of kidney transplantation who developed COVID-19 and late-onset PJP has been reported, but this patient also suffered from many other infections and died from respiratory failure and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. A successful treatment of kidney patients with COVID-19 and late-onset PJP has not been reported. Case presentation We present a case of a 55-year-old male kidney transplant patient with COVID-19 who also developed late-onset PJP. He received a combined treatment strategy, including specific anti-pneumocystis therapy, symptomatic supportive therapy, adjusted immunosuppressive therapy, and use of antiviral drugs/antibiotics, ending with a favorable outcome. Conclusions This case highlights the importance of prompt and differential diagnosis of PJP in kidney transplant patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Further studies are required to clarify if kidney transplant patients with COVID-19 could be prone to develop late-onset PJP and how these patients should be treated.

description: The Instituto de Investigaciones Fundamentales en Agricultura Tropical ‘Alejandro de Humboldt’ (INIFAT), together with other partners, received financial support from the Benefit-sharing Fund of the International Treaty. One of the funded projects addressed the ‘Contribution of traditional methods for the in situ conservation and management of maize (Zea mays L.) and beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) to the food security of peasant families executed in 2011 to 2012 provided an in-depth information of crops’ characterisics based on farmers’ perceptions. The project enabled to document corn and bean varieties and the traditional farming system in rural areas, while also providing training workshops, agrobiodiversity fairs and culinary festivals to promote awareness among communities regarding the importance of in situ conservation of crops. Through these activities, farmers were motivated to rescue the ‘lost’ cultivars; non-academic workshops were important tools for the dissemination of good practices of relevance for interested farmers. A second project commences in 2019, aims to strengthen community resilience and improve food security of farming communities in two Biosphere Reserves through in situ conservation and sustainable use of crop diversity. It will support farming community in crop improvement, strengthening community seed bank and networks, and organization of seed fairs and culinary festivals.

description: The Ministry of Science, Technology, and Environment (CITMA), together with other public organizations and the Instituto de Investigaciones Fundamentales en Agricultura Tropical ‘Alejandro de Humboldt' (INIFAT), developed projects for in situ conservation of agrobiodiversity in the Cuban Biosphere Reserves. This work started in 1995 in the Biosphere Reserves ‘Sierra del Rosario’ and ‘Cuchillas del Toa’. Main objectives were to highlight the importance of agrobiodiversity and the knowledge associated with PGRFA conserved, managed and used by farmers in these areas. The first projects showed that the diversity of species was high; and that its use was important for the sustainability of farms. However, there was no opportunity yet to deepen such insights, for example in terms of assessing intraspecific diversity and underlying management processes, especially production and mobility of seed through informal systems; it was also not known which factors (environmental, social and economic) influence conservation activities of farmers. These questions served as starting points for further projects, like those currently being funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF). The results of these projects have led to the integration of agrobiodiversity monitoring into the management plans of the Biosphere Reserves of Cuba for the period 2014-2020.
