FAO’s Third Report on the State of the World’s Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture underscores plant diversity as crucial for future agrifood systems. This video illustrates how plant genetic resources—found in the wild, on farms, and in genebanks—enable nutritious crops resilient to pests, diseases, and climate extremes. It highlights global conservation efforts and the vital roles of farmers, scientists, and institutions.

Stronger policies, innovation, and awareness are essential to protect this diversity and build sustainable food systems. Learn more: FAO Plant Production and Protection. Subscribe: YouTube.
