| Due to fast spread of genetically modified (GM) Bt-cotton, organic farmers in India were suddenly exposed to a severe shortage of non-GM seed threatening the organic cotton production. Therefore, organic cotton grower organisations got engaged in decentralized participatory cotton breeding to develop their own locally adapted cultivars and to reintroduce the traditional more robust Desi cotton species. By engaging and training advisors and farmers using participatory methods, they became researchers and breeders. The close collaboration with the textile industry ensures that the market demand is also met. Training of male and female farmers in cultivar selection and seed propagation made them independent from global seed companies. Participatory breeding... |

| The Research Institute of Organic Agriculture (FiBL) established farming systems comparison trials in Bolivia, Kenya and India (SysCom). Besides long-term experiments, the program includes a participatory on-farm research (POR) component which aims at solving the most urgent problems of local farmers. In India, these related to nutrient management, organic pest control and seed availability, which were tackled using a combination of on-farm and on-station trials. We here present the methods, results and lessons learnt of the activities implemented in the POR component of SysCom in India. |
