Gaza Restores Seed Bank Through Agriculture
The article discusses efforts to revive the local seed bank in the Gaza Strip after it was destroyed during the Israeli war in 2023. The goal is to protect and propagate indigenous seed varieties that face the risk of extinction due to destruction and resource limitations. The bank is a nonprofit organization committed to preserving local agricultural diversity and supplying farmers with seeds amid shrinking farming areas and significant losses to agricultural stations caused by war and blockade. Despite enormous challenges, farmers continue to use sustainable seeds and adapt to difficult conditions, as seeds symbolize resilience and serve as a form of resistance against the destruction of Gaza’s agricultural sector.
