description The Estonian government has responded to the global efforts for conservation and sustainable use of biological diversity ratifying international agreements and initiating the National Programme on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture. Collection, identification and conservation of plant genetic material of Estonian origin as well establishing the network were the essential activities of the National Programme.
