Farmers make up 60% of the population, and 70% of the population lives in the countryside. The volume of rice and coffee exports are the second highest in the world. We also want to create opportunities for city people and those in rural areas to understand and cooperate with each other, and for young and older generations to share traditional culture and knowledge. People living in the city can support the people who keep and utilize indigenous seeds so that they can continue to promote the quality of food which provides the nutrition they need to stay healthy.īased on this idea, Seed to Table will identify indigenous varieties and use them while promoting ecologically friendly agriculture and sound natural resource management practices. For instance, do they have sustainable livelihoods, are resources they need guaranteed to them, is there a sufficient cooperation for them to collaborate long-term.Ĭooperation among different stakeholders to solve common problems is also needed. To accomplish this, it is essential to understand the lives of people who are the keepers of indigenous seeds right now.

Seed to Table works to conserve this legacy and pass on indigenous varieties, natural resources that nurture crops, and people’s knowledge and culture to future generations. We believe that conserving indigenous seeds not only enriches our food and therefore our lives, but also helps protect biodiversity and traditional cultures. Expansion of large food industries has pushed indigenous seeds to the brink of survival. However, with the advent of widespread monoculture over the past 50 years, hybrid seed varieties have become widely accepted. This experience has been handed down to us so that we now also enjoy a rich and varied diet. Our ancestors cooperated together and developed technologies to continue using indigenous seeds. At that time, abundant natural resources were crucial to human survival. In the past, farmers saved indigenous seeds that were well adapted to local climatic conditions in order to get enough food and sustain their life.
