Abstract
Conservation and utilization of genetic resources in agriculture: The viewpoint of the European commission

The mode of functioning of the Regulation 1467/94 is explained. Brief mention is made of allied “flanking measures” of the Reform of the CAP concerning support for threatened cultivars or animal breeds and the marketing of local agricultural products. Information is provided on projects currently underway that are supported by Regulation 1467/94.
