Summary
This essay discusses the
erosion of agricultural biodiversity. It argues that this trend is putting the
ability of future generations to feed themselves at risk, and that in order to
reverse the trend, new policies must be implemented worldwide. One of its main
points is that this is especially important because it is the poorest farmers
that are the stewards of genetic diversity.
