National Target 8 of NBSAP 2014-2030 is mapped to ABT13 and included under National Priority 4, to be implemented jointly by Government, universities and research institutions by 2025. Planned actions focus on: developing and updating inventory on genetic resources (phytogenetic and agrogenetic) and developing/supporting and implementing a conservation program for them; encouraging the implementation of cross-breeding programs for domestic animals and cultivated varieties to improve these biological resources without losing the best features of existing local genetic heritage; and promoting exchanges and establishing protocols with institutions associated to genetic preservation. There are three indicators defined for National Target 8: number of inventories on plant genetic resources prepared or updated; number of legal instruments (seeds) passed; patenting of at least x varieties of plants of economic and cultural value. (NBSAP)

Ecuador —
The National Biodiversity Strategy 2015-2030 contains four national targets that are mapped to ABT13. By 2017, the country aimed to have established two Bio-Knowledge Centres in selected provinces for conserving local agrobiodiversity; and to have increased production systems for agricultural biodiversity by 10%, taking into account the knowledge and experiences of women and men of Indigenous communities and ethnic groups. By 2021, the country aims to have consolidated the National Germplasm Bank of native species for food and agriculture and associated wild species; as well as implemented a certified and updated National Seed Bank including all species considered to be useful at this point in time. (NBSAP)

United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland —
The Scottish Strategy (2020 Challenge for Scotland’s Biodiversity) published in 2013 highlights that farmed and cultivated biodiversity, and associated genetic diversity, constitute an important part of Scotland’s natural capital. The relevance of traditional knowledge to this area is also highlighted. Work is being undertaken by numerous bodies, including the Farm Animal Genetic Resources Expert Committee and the UK Plant Genetic Resources Group. Related programmes include inter alia the Scottish Landrace Protection Scheme, administered by Science and Advice for Scottish Agriculture (SASA), which promotes continuation of the practice of using traditional varieties of farm animals and crops in the country’s island communities.

Somalia —
In Somaliland, a seed bank has been established which aims to collect and store local seeds that are of good quality and that have greater resistance to the local climate. Other aims are to the reduce the risks associated with the use of foreign seeds (such as the introduction of new diseases), as well as ensure the availability of less expensive seeds and local seed production. Another seed bank has been established in Cuun village in Puntland State however is not yet operationalized. (6NR)

Timor-Leste —
Ongoing efforts to conserve locally-cultivated crops in particular and promote their future cultivation are being led by the Ministry of Agriculture. Through the Ministry’s National Directorate for Research, Statistics and GIS, 92 local species have been collected from 6 municipalities (Baucau, Lautem, Liquica, Manufahi, Maliana and Viqueque) since 2014, and are now stored at the collection centres of Loes and Betano to be further developed. In addition, through the ‘Seeds of Life’ project, a national seed system was established in 2016 to ensure that good seed of improved varieties is produced annually to meet the national seed requirement (33%). Crops such as maize, rice, peanut, sweet potato, kidney bean, mung bean, cassava and, recently, a purple sweet potato from Baucau, have been released and distributed to farmers for cultivation. (6NR)

Croatia —
The National Program on the Conservation and Sustainable Use of Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (2017-2020), aligned with the Second Global Plan of Action for Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, is currently under implementation. Plant genetic resources on all accessions related to original and traditional agricultural plants at threat of disappearing are deposited in the Croatian Plant Genetic Resources Database (CPGRD). In addition, the National Program of Conservation of Indigenous and Protected Breeds of Domesticated Animals adopted in 2010 remains in place. Furthermore, the Operational Program for the Establishment of a Gene Bank of Domesticated Animals in the Republic of Croatia was adopted by the Ministry of Agriculture in 2012. Under the Rural Development Program of the Republic of Croatia (2014-2020), financial support is provided for preservation, sustainable use and development of genetic resources in agriculture. (6NR)

Costa Rica —
Since 2013, an Agrobiodiversity Fair has taken place each year in the canton of Talamanca. This event is promoted by the Talamanca-Caribbean Biological Corridor Association and IUCN and aims to conserve and rescue biodiversity for agriculture through strengthening protection of native seeds and knowledge about cultivation practices. It also serves as a nature-based solution to assist farmers adapt to climate change. In 2018, 210 producers exchanged seed, non-timber forest products, and related knowledge. Also, the Sancarleña Network of Rural Women (Rescamur) has been organized by women from the canton. Native seeds are contributed by members throughout the year and exchanged at an annual fair. The Network is currently preparing a recipe book called ‘Seed Sanctuary as the basis of the Rural Gastronomy’ and in charge of managing the ‘La Libre’ Agroecological Farm, dedicated to the conservation of natural species cultivated without agrochemicals or GMOs. The farm features inter alia educational trails, a forest nursery, medicinal plants and a seed sanctuary. (6NR)

Switzerland —
The country is taking measures to conserve and promote the genetic diversity of crop plants through implementation of the National Action Plan for the Conservation and Sustainable Use of Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture. A conceptual framework has been prepared to conserve agricultural livestock. Measures are being carried out to conserve and develop the genetic diversity of forests through implementation of near-natural silviculture with natural regeneration, conservation of locally adapted populations (and in relation to their potential adaptability in forests of particular genetic interest), and in the use of locally adapted reproductive material (seeds, seedlings) for artificial regeneration of populations. However, there is a lack of data available on the development and status of genetic diversity of wild plants and animals due to the absence of appropriate monitoring programmes (it is recognized that efforts are required in this area).
