Crop Innovations CIO

Crop Innovations provides support to farmers, governments and organisations working at grass-roots levels to promote sustainable agriculture and conservation. We conduct demand-driven research and adapt scientific technology that supports a value chain for diverse crops and ensures the benefits of these crops are shared appropriately with all stakeholders. Our work particularly seeks to capture the full value of currently under-utilised crops and varieties through characterising their genetic diversity and helping to ensure indigenous knowledge is rewarded.
