Genetic resources \u2013 modern cultivated varieties\u00a0crossed with wild relatives \u2013 serve as the starting point for developing improved varieties with new combinations of desired attributes through crossing and selection. Today, with an increased understanding of genetics, plant breeders are able to\u00a0link specific genes to specific characteristics and make\u00a0targeted\u00a0improvements.<\/p><p>The seed industry is committed to developing better seed for a better quality of life. Better seed\u00a0brings\u00a0economic, environmental\u00a0and health benefits. Improved seed\u00a0that is resistant to\u00a0drought and disease\u00a0reduces the risk of crop failure thus supporting sustainable agriculture and global food security.<\/p><p>Accelerating genetic improvement through the development of new germplasm and technologies is critical to achieving sustainable increases in productivity.

It provides a transparent legal framework for the implementation of one of the three objectives of the CBD: the fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising out of the utilization of genetic resources. It is intended to create greater legal certainty and transparency for both providers and users of genetic resources by:<\/p><ul><li>establishing more predictable conditions for access to genetic resources<\/li><li>helping to ensure benefit-sharing when genetic resources leave the contracting party providing the genetic resources.<\/li><\/ul><p>The Protocol was adopted on 29 October 2010 in Nagoya, Japan, and entered into force on 12 October 2014. It has been ratified by 60 parties, which includes 59 states and the European Union.
