Organic seed and plant breeding to accelerate sustainable and diverse food systems in Europe

LIVESEEDING通过：(I)为提高多样性和适应当地条件而培育的大范围作物的有机品种(有机异质材料、有机品种、地方品种)的有机植物繁殖材料的可用性，以及(Ii)根据市场需求加强和多样化有机种子部门，从而促进欧洲有机生产的扩大。LIVESEEDING通过进一步发展(I)适合有机和低外部投入生产的品种，(Ii)将饲养者与价值链参与者和公民与当地粮食生产联系起来的新治理模式，以及(Iii)对生物多样性对我们食品和健康的重要性的认识，为向环境友好、气候中立、健康和公平的食品系统过渡做出了贡献。LIVESEEDING侧重于(I)有机种子和栽培品种的供需，(Ii)它们衍生的食品的供需，以及(Iii)通过与各国和欧洲当局和政策制定者进行积极的政策对话，提供以科学为基础的证据和最佳实践解决方案，以实现100%有机种子，从而支持框架和路线图。LIVESEEDING以一种全面的多行动者、多利益相关者参与的方式解决这些问题，有机和公共研究机构(在育种、种子繁育和健康、社会经济、推广和推广方面具有公认的能力)、品种审定办公室、私人育种者和种子公司、有机生产和文明社会协会参与其中。价值链上的其他利益相关者参与了当地的生活实验室(LLS)和已建立的有机育种者网络(ECO PB)、种子保存者(ECLLD)和米兰城市食品政策公约(MUFPP)。15个欧洲国家涵盖不同的土壤气候带和社会经济背景，包括东欧和南欧有机种子和育种发展水平较低的国家

LIVESEEDING contributes to the upscaling of organic production in Europe through (i) improving availability of organic plant reproductive material of organic cultivars (Organic Heterogeneous Material, Organic Varieties, landraces) of a large range of crops, bred for improved diversity and adaptation to local conditions, and (ii) strengthening and diversifying the organic seed sector informed by market demands. LIVESEEDING contributes to the transition towards environmentally-friendly, climate-neutral, healthy and fair food systems through further developing (i) cultivars suited for organic and low external input production, (ii) novel governance models linking breeders with value chain actors and citizens with local food production, and (iii) awareness around the importance of biodiversity for our food and health. LIVESEEDING focuses on the main drivers for (i) the supply and demand of organic seed and cultivars, (ii) the supply and demand of food products derived from them, and (iii) enabling frameworks and roadmaps through active policy dialogue with national and European authorities and policymakers by providing science-based evidence and best practice solutions to achieve 100% organic seed. LIVESEEDING addresses the topics in a holistic multi-actor, multi-stakeholder participatory approach involving organic and public research institutes (with proven competencies in breeding, seed multiplication and health, socio-economics, extension and outreach), variety examination offices, private breeders and seed companies, organic production and civilsociety associations. Additional stakeholders along the value chain are involved in the local Living Labs (LLs) and the established networks of organic breeders (ECO PB), seed savers (ECLLD) and Milan Urban Food Policy Pact (MUFPP). 15 European countries cover the different pedoclimatic zones and socio-economic contexts, including countries with a low level of development in organic seed and breeding in East and South Europeno
