Discussion space: driving progress
In module 3, you have learned about improvements some genebanks were able to make to the longevity of certain crop species, as a result of scientific investigations. It is important to emphasize that for most crop species, genebanks are doing a good-enough job in conserving diversity. What, then, are the challenges genebanks face in their attempts to improve their processes still further? How might they go about designing incremental improvements?
What measures can genebanks take to improve on their record?
