crop trust presentation of performance targets of the crp and long term grants
DESCRIPTION
This presentation highlights the Crop Trust's work on the conservation, availability, and use of crop diversity from the international collections supported by the CRP through the CGIAR and the Crop Trust's own long term grants,TRANSCRIPT
Genebanks CRP
• Crop & tree diversity in
international collections under
Art 15 is secured in perpetuity
• Conserved crop & tree
germplasm is clean, available
and disseminated
2
Genebanks CRP
• Use of conserved crop and tree
diversity is informed and
facilitated
• Crop & tree diversity is
conserved within a
rationalized, cost-effective and
globalized system.

Genebanks are Good Value!
• Cooperation 88 - C88
– 400,000 ha in China
– Economic benefits US$ 350 m/yr
• Kasetsart 50 - KU 50
– 1 million hectares in Thailand & Vietnam
– Aggregate economic benefits > US$ 97 million

Genebanks are Good Value!
The 12 most popular accessions in the IRRI genebank
have been used in more than 1000 crosses each
6
Of 4,317 rice varieties
released, 90% non-IRRI
varieties and 100% IRRI
varieties had at least one
genebank accession in its
pedigree
Performance Indicators
• % of total collection available
(viable, disease-free, in sufficient
sample numbers)
• % of total collection secure in long
term storage/cryo and safety
duplicated plus in SGSV for seed
crops
7
> 90% Target
Performance Indicators
• % of total collection represented with passport and characterization data online
• Stage (from 1 to 5) in QMS development
• Average overall satisfaction of genebank users
• % of the collection that is disseminated over a 10-yr period
• Cost efficiency (per accession cost, cost per distribution, number staff)

Findings
16
The majority of genebanks will not meet performance
targets by the end of 2016. We believe that they can
reach targets by 2021 through monitored, rationalized
and fully supported workplans.

Reviewers Comments
“The bank appears at a crossroad. A successful future depends on it being used to maximum potential.”
“The operational procedures have grown organically as the need for them arose…The procedures need objective review, critical or redundant areas identified and addressed so that processes are streamlined and fully justifiable”
“staff [of two Centers] should engage in discussions and actions that will result ina more rational approach to the conservation of PGR than is presently the case.This should involve the clear delineation of responsibilities for different parts ofthe genepool, agreement on the archiving of actively managed materials whichare held in duplication and concrete mechanisms for closer communication andcollaboration, including data sharing and resolution of taxonomic issues.”

“A genebank must be, especially those
in the CGIAR system, a reliable
repository of germplasm for
conservation and access…According to
the current procedures, the genebank is
clearly failing in delivering…as one
third of the material is currently not
available even though it is presented on
the website. This situation is highly
undesirable and has the potential to
generate damage in terms of public
relations for both the genebank and the
entire CGIAR”

Findings
Funding allocations will never be equitable
between Centers nor cost-efficient as long as the
genebanks are running at different levels. We
believe we need to pursue other mechanisms than
the Costing Study.

Fund Disbursement Strategy
Principles and criteria of eligibility
• Materials are Annex 1/Art 15, accessible, important within a rational system
Each holder:
commits to long term conservation and availability
works in partnership towards the global system
has links to users
has HR & management system to maintain PGR
can demonstrate conformity with agreed standards
has facilities that are adequate for LTS
24
Potential Funding Structure?
Matching funds:
Overheads, research FCR not related to direct
genebank use, capital depreciation
Incentive funding:
Available for activities that go beyond basic
genebanking according to performance & use
Fixed base funding:
Basic genebank staff, operations and facility
costs

Principles of Partnership
• Financial and performance commitment on both sides
• Based on a Business Plan which describes financing plan of
the collection (including cost recovery from use)
• Agreed Acquisition and Curation Policies. Deviations are
shared with the CropTrust.
• Performance targets are met before commitment is made for
long-term provision of Full Fixed Base Funding
• Transparent mechanism for retraction from agreement
