Protecting crop diversity worldwide

Safeguarding the World's Food Supply, One Seed at a Time.

CropSecurity.org works with farmers, scientists, and communities to protect crop diversity and build food systems that can withstand climate change, disease, and disaster.

The Challenge

Every 10 seconds, the world loses a crop variety forever.

Climate change, monoculture farming, and disappearing biodiversity are quietly threatening the food security of billions. When we lose crop diversity, we lose our best defense against drought, disease, and famine.

What We Stand For

Food security starts with crop security.

We believe no farmer, family, or nation should be one bad season away from hunger. CropSecurity.org exists to conserve crop diversity, equip farmers with resilient practices, and connect communities to the resources they need to grow — season after season.

How Amara Doubled Her Harvest in One Season

When drought hit her village two seasons running, Amara watched her maize wither before it could feed her family — let alone reach a market. Like one in three smallholder farmers, she had no access to seed varieties bred to survive a changing climate.

Through a local CropSecurity.org training program, Amara received drought-tolerant seed stock, hands-on guidance in crop rotation, and a place in a nearby farming cooperative. She learned to read her soil, stagger her planting, and store surplus grain safely.

One season later, her harvest had doubled. For the first time, Amara sold her surplus at a fair price through the cooperative — turning resilience into income, and a single good season into a foundation she can build on.

One season. Double the harvest. A family no longer one bad season from hunger.
