The appreciation for agricultural
biodiversity has grown and matured, resulting in an increasing awareness
that its valuation and use could contribute to long-term conservation and
use. This sourcebook encourages action aimed at managing agricultural
biodiversity resources within existing landscapes and ecosystems, in
support of the livelihoods of farmers, fishers and livestock keepers.
The publication is a compilation of
field-based experiences by scientists, development specialists,
academics, policy-makers and donors around the world; it consists of three
volumes: 1) understanding agricultural biodiverity, 2) strengthening
local management of agricultural biodiversity, and 3) ensuring an
enabling environment for agricultural biodiversity. It is designed for
use by rural development practitioners and local administrators, as well
as trainors and educationalists.
