Title
Center for Bio-diversitet
Description
About the Centre for Biodiversity - Danish Non-Governmental information centre
The Centre is an independent Danish information centre established in 1995. Its aim is to provide information about preserving the man-made diversity of crops and livestock breeds - not in a remote and exclusive gene bank but at grass-roots level out in the backyard so that the general public can once again enjoy the living cultural heritage.
In the old days there was a much more varied range of varieties of local crops, a variety of potato or strawberry for every taste and purpose. Now we only have a few varieties that are well-suited to mass production; but they taste pretty much the same and not very exciting!
The old varieties adapted to our climate through generations of selection. Well-adapted livestock and plants flourish and therefore have less need of drugs and toxic sprays.
