AfricaAdapt Online discussion - Local seeds, GM seeds, food
security, and climate change Associated Organization:
AfricaAdapt Climate change and variability is a challenge to
Africa’s food security, affecting both the quantity and quality
of agricultural production. Against this background, increasing
voices are questioning whether local seeds, the yardstick of
farmers' agro economic sovereignty and yet severely affected by
the adverse effects of climate change, are still enough to
secure food security amongst African households. Join the
