Seed Saving

With hybrid and Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) seeds flooding into Indonesia from various sources around the world and new varieties being regularly researched and tested on the ground, a viable alternative to this potentially catastrophic technology is obviously needed.

Multi-national corporations involved in the GMO industry often use misleading promotional materials, and access to clear information about GMOs in the Indonesian language is very difficult to find. In reaction to this, GLC will conduct a wide-range of activities in organic seed production with GMO and Seed Saving Information Kits. Training courses and assistance will be provided to local farmers to produce seeds using various organic permaculture techniques and methods.
