Ethiopia is one of the world’s most significant centres of origin – a biodiversity hotspot. In the northern Wollo region of Ethiopia – the country’s sorghum breadbasket – USC’s ground-breaking Seeds of Survival program is working with farmers to launch a very special new community seed bank complex.
Farmers in Ethiopia already have the time-tested knowledge and skills crucial to maintaining crop diversity – the foundation of a secure food supply. The Wollo seed bank will help ensure that foundation remains strong.
Watch this short slideshow to learn more about the seed bank being built in Wollo, then please consider making a donation to support this work.
