How to Save Plants - Approaches to Plant Conservation

In situ conservation protects species in the natural environment and makes it possible to maintain natural systems and processes.

Even if natural habitats are destroyed or the population is reduced, environmental conservation on the spot is the protection of species removed from its natural environment. This also allows the possibility of recovering a degraded natural system

In order to ensure the long-term protection of all natural resources, we must ultimately achieve sustainability and universal sustainable life of plant utilization. Currently, we do not appreciate the many benefits of natural resources properly, so even if they are essential for human survival and well-being, our activities tend to consume them and degrade them .

The traditional method of seed protection focuses on the rescue of individual animals and plants in specific places aimed at restoring as many original conditions as possible. For example, conservation activities - protecting habitats around the area - are built around the needs of a specific species with little or no attempt to harmonize these protections with the greater needs of human society . Regulatory solutions take precedence over strategies based on financial or other incentives and landlords and companies are often considered hostile actors

In-position - "in situ" - two main ways of protection - protection and protection of wild-grown species ("outdoor in situ maintenance") and maintenance of plants or animals by active planting or breeding Position conservation farm ")") In this book, I introduced another way of protection, I call it "life". Environmentalists do not regard us as part of this solution, but we do. We are all interested in maintaining food and drink.

In this case, the farmers refused to plant wild fruit trees, it was impossible to preserve the plants in situ and the plants could be preserved outside the original position. In the original position, the plants are not raised in the field but are stored in the seed bank. Seed banks are buildings where genetic resources such as seeds, roots, stems are stored in cold places. There are more than 6 million crops stored in over 1,300 gene banks worldwide or plant samples other than non-crop plants of different species and breeds. These banks are particularly useful when the plant's natural environment is destroyed. In the future, if the environment becomes available or plants are needed, you can plant again. These plant-derived genes are also an opportunity for genetic improvement of future economically important crop plants. However, genetically modified organisms are still subject to strong debate among civil society.
