Terrestrial ecosystems are more important than ever to meet the world’s food needs. That’s why CIAT works to improve soil management from farm plots to whole landscapes to ensure that ecosystem services provide the benefits that are essential for sustainable development. CIAT is also investing in a new global hub for crop diversity to better conserve more than 66,000 unique bean, tropical forage and cassava materials currently preserved in its genebank and make them available to the world.
