Mangaluru: An expert from Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) has said agro-biodiversity conservation approach has not received the attention from the stakeholders concerned in the country.

Speaking at the inauguration of the national workshop on ‘Agro-biodiversity conservation for sustainable socio-ecological development’ at Mangalore University on Monday, KG Saxena, Professor, School of Environmental Sciences, JNU, New Delhi, said agriculture has remained the focus area for many.

Long-term approach

Following this, agro-biodiversity conservation has not received much attention. The country requires a long-term approach for agro-biodiversity conservation.

He said some regions in the country have unique agro-biodiversity systems. These regions — identified as ‘Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems’ (GIAHS) by the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) of the United Nations (UN) — are rich in agro-biodiversity and indigenous knowledge and culture.

Kuttanad’s below sea-level farming system in Kerala and Koraput’s traditional agriculture system in Odisha are identified as GIAHS by FAO, he said.
