通过使用“本土农业科学”的概念，埃塞俄比亚西南部的Omotic Ari人进行了建设性和无意识的活动，他们培养和保存了群体遗传资源。都被举例说明和描述。与研究阶段和基因库进行的迁地保存植物遗传资源相比，Ari人在努力保持整体地方品种的多样性方面是如此谨慎和准确。根据他们的民间信仰体系，不仅是栽培种群，而且野生种群也被保存在仪式保护区中。此外，将栽培种群与野生种群的天然杂交产生的新的基因类型引入栽培种群也有一定的机制。ARI的保护努力可以被认为是少数几个就地保护作物遗传资源的理想案例之一。正确解读他们的“民间原址保护”活动，最终可以让我们对他们的本土农业科学有更全面的了解。
By employing the concept of "indigenous agricultural science," both construc tive and unconscious activities of the Omotic Ari people in southwestern Ethiopia, who cul tivate as well as preserve ensete genetic resources. are exemplified and described. The Ari people are so deliberate and accurate in their efforts to keep the diversity of ensete landraces as compared to the ex-situ conservation of plant genetic resources performed by research sta tions and gene banks. By their folk belief system, not only the cultivated populations but the wild populations of ensete are also conserved in a ritual sanctuary. Moreover, there are cer tain mechanisms of bringing into cultivated populations new genotypes originated from natural crosses between cultivated populations and wild populations. The Ari's conservation al efforts can be considered as one of a few ideal cases of in-sitll conservation of crop genetic resources. Proper interpretation of their "folk in-situ conservation" activities for ensete can eventually lead us to full understanding of their indigenous agricultural sciences.
