Crop varieties are being researched with the involvement of universities, research institutions and local communities across the country for example. For instance, research is being carried out on the resilience of rice varieties’ resilience to drought, flood tolerance, salt tolerance and into alternative varieties that are resistant to pests and disease. Another important on-going project is “Addressing Climate Change Risks on Water Resources and Food Security in the Dry Zone of Myanmar” (funded by the Adaptation Fund and implemented by UNDP with line ministries, CSOs, communities and other stakeholders).
“Crop varieties are being researched with the involvement of universities, research institutions and local communities across the country” (p. 10) “research is being carried out on the resilience of rice varieties’ resilience to drought, flood tolerance, salt tolerance and into alternative varieties that are resistant to 11 pests and disease.” (p. 10-11) Research is being carried out on the resilience of rice varieties‘ resilience to drought, flood tolerance, salt tolerance and into alternative varieties that are resistant to pests and disease.
