 note = {Activities and organizational structures of Small-Scale Seed industries were studied in the Netherlands and Germany in order to analyze the roles of the Small-Scale Seed Industry in the context of conservation of bio-diversity for agriculture, namely, management of traditional varieties of vegetables and other crops. The authors found that most of the small-scale seed industries in Europe serve mainly for hobby farmers and/or organic/bio-dynamic farmers. This suggests seed industry in Europe may not be a feasible institution for conservation of traditional varieties attached to the localities like local vegetables in Japan, especially in Nagano. However, these seed industry is well accepted by the society and this may serve for utilization of wider varieties of crops thus contributing the conservation of agro-biodiversity in parallel with formal gene banks., Article, 環境科学年報30:67-71(2008)},
