These Guidelines were produced under the guidance of and were endorsed by FAO’s Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (Commission). FAO’s Plant Production and Protection Division adapted the Guidelines from the Resource Book for Preparation of National Conservation Plans for Crop Wild Relatives and Landraces, an earlier FAO-commissioned study undertaken by the University of Birmingham, United Kingdom. The publication of these Guidelines was made possible by the contributions of many individuals.
