OUR IMPACT

Goals

To improve germplasm health contributing to safeguarding global food security.

Objectives

To increase operational efficiency of germplasm health testing of the Seed Health Unit of ICARDA Rabat-Morocco.

Problems and Needs Analysis

Prior to this project, ICARDA's seed health laboratory in Rabat Morocco didn't have a climate chamber. The technology offers the possibility of implementing new testing activities and improving the testing quality.

Intervention Strategy(ies)

The order, procurement of material, and installation of the new climate chamber.

Impact Pathway

The addition of the first climate chamber to ICARDA's seed health laboratory in Rabat Morocco will increase the operational efficiency of germplasm testing by increasing the seed health indexing through the use of new testing activities and the improvement of the overall testing quality. This contributes towards the optimization of ICARDA's germplasm movement and eventually leads to the conservation and safeguarding of germplasm.
