What is Crop Genetic Resources as a Global Commons: Challenges in International Law and Governance (Issues in Agricultural Biodiversity) about?
Farmers Have Engaged In Collective Systems Of Conservation And Innovation -- Improving Crops And Sharing Their Reproductive Materials -- Since The Earliest Plant Domestications. Relatively Open Flows Of Plant Germplasm Attended The Early Spread Of Agriculture; They Continued In The Wake Of (and Were Driven By) Imperialism, Colonization, Emigration, Trade, Development Assistance And Climate Change. As Crops Have Moved Around The World, And Agricultural Innovation And Production Systems Have Expanded, So Too Has The Scope And Coverage Of Pools Of Shared Plant Genetic Resources That Support Those Systems. The Range Of Actors Involved In Their Conservation And Use Has Also Increased Dramatically. This Book Addresses How The Collective Pooling And Management Of Shared Plant Genetic Resources For Food And Agriculture Can Be Supported Through Laws Regulating Access To Genetic Resources And The Sharing Of Benefits Arising From Their Use. Since The Most Important Recent Development In The Field Has Been The Creation Of The Multilateral System Of Access And Benefit-sharing Under The International Treaty On Plant Genetic Resources For Food And Agriculture, Many Of The Chapters In This Book Wi
