Fresh Nibbles

    1. A primer on the USDA genebank in Pullman.
    2. Possible genebank in Indonesia. I could have sworn there was one already.
    3. Community genebank in Somalia. Surely not the only one.
    4. Garlic moves between genebanks. I’m sure there’s a reason.
    5. New enset products and processing methods are great, but is there a comprehensive genebank? I wish I could be sure.
    6. That goes for other “opportunity crops” and “forgotten foods” too.
