Nibbles: Cherokee Three Sisters, Australian native grains, Ancient Peruvian irrigation, Indian apples, IFOAM Seed Platform, MSB, Chinese conservation, Protected areas, Soybeans breeding, Funding cuts
- Three Sisters rematriated to historical Cherokee Nation.
- Native grains returning to Indigenous land in Australia too.
- May need to bring back agricultural practices too, like in Peru.
- Meanwhile, in India, farmers are trying to grow apples in new places. Go figure.
- Anyway, seems like the IFOAM Seeds Platform might be able to help.
- And genebanks too of course, like the Millennium Seed Bank.
- As part of a comprehensive conservation systems, goes without saying, like in China.
- Which also include climate-proof protected areas.
- It worked for soybeans, after all.
- Well, for now anyway…
