Over the past decade the importance of natural resources for
sustainable agricultural development has been increasingly
discussed at international forums and conferences. Aside from the
sustainable management of soil, water, and air, it now seems to be
accepted that the sustainable management of genetic resources is
one of the four indispensable preconditions for a sustainable
agriculture. The discussion on conservation of plant genetic
resources for food and agriculture (PGRFA), however, has to reflect
the costs of conservation as well. These have not yet been
discussed intensively. The study analyzes the conservation costs of
plant genetic resources; it also assesses the effectiveness of
conservation and the efficiency of the different conservation
instruments. It is based on extensive surveys in relevant
countries. Following the detailed cost and impact analysis, the
results show that the effectiveness of conservation strategies may
be increased.
