At the last IFOAM General Assembly motions instructing the
IFOAM World Board to develop position papers on the primordial role of
smallholders and family farmers in the context of food sovereignty and on the
use of organic seed and propagation materials in organic agriculture were
adopted.
The first draft of the IFOAM Position on Smallholders (available in
both English and Spanish) and the second draft IFOAM Position
on Seeds
are now available for comment and can be downloaded from the links on
the right.
Please submit your comments by email to the IFOAM head office
at: organic@ifoam.org
The deadline for feedback for both papers is September
