Opportunities for farm seed conservation, breeding and production

 
 

Farm Seed Opportunities (FSO), a research project in the FP6 European Research Framework (2007-2009), was targeted to support the implementation of seed regulations on conservation varieties (directive 98/95/EC and new directives 2008/62/EC, 2009/145/EC and 2010/60/EC) and to propose complementary seed regulation scenarios taking into account the diversity of the European seed systems.


The FSO project is a collaborative effort of farmers and scientists from France, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
