| description | Food security for developing countries has been assured through the practice over
millennia of farmers freely using and exchanging genetic resources for food and
agriculture. Further, countries have been freely utilizing and exchanging such genetic
resources. This establishes a high level of global inter-dependency for these resources.
However, food security could well be threatened by international treaties such as the
Convention on Biological Diversity and the Nagoya Protocol on Access and Benefit-sharing
of Genetic Resources arising for their Utilization which provide for countries to
enact national laws or policies to regulate access to these resources. |
