dc.description.abstractFaced with a unique economic crisis, Cuba’s national agriculture system was near collapse, threatening the country’s food security. But working together with groups of farmers, a team of young plant breeders is turning things around. And by working together both the farmers and the breeders are learning valuable lessons that could prove to be valuable to the agriculture systems of other countries in the region.en
