The State of the World’s Biodiversity for Food and Agriculture (SoW-BFA) addresses the sustainable use, development and conservation of BFA worldwide. BFA is taken to include the diversity of animals, plants and micro-organisms at the genetic, species and ecosystem levels that sustain structures, functions and processes in and around production systems and provide food and non-food agricultural products.

The State of the World’s Biodiversity for Food and Agriculture (SoW-BFA) addresses the sustainable use, development and conservation of BFA worldwide. BFA is taken to include the diversity of animals, plants and micro-organisms at the genetic, species and ecosystem levels that sustain structures, functions and processes in and around production systems and provide food and non-food agricultural products.
This report presents the first global assessment of biodiversity for food and agriculture
(BFA). It complements other global assessments prepared under the auspices of the
Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (see Box 1), which have
focused on the state of genetic resources within particular sectors of food and agriculture.
It draws on
information provided in 91 country reports (prepared by over 1 300 contributors), 27 reports
from international organizations and inputs from over 175 authors and reviewers.
