b"Third, the selection and collection of various materials from companies, and from all over the world, is an extremely important process for business and science. Therefore, such genebanks and companies share their materials, as it takes titanic efforts to create a new variety or hybrid. They do not appear on their own. Without renewal, varieties or hybrids will not be able to compete with new varieties in the market, will not be able to withstand new weather or climate challenges, and will not be able to grow in ever-changing soils and environments.Ultimately, it also impacts the food security. After all, such research provides insight into what seeds can grow, for example, in Kazakhstan and in South Africa. Thus, Ukrainian breeders can develop the very varieties, which would grow well in those countries. It will not be possible without a scientific base and understanding of the characteristics of the germplasm.Impact on the Entire ChainAnother very important point is a chain reaction in all sectors of the economy. IfShattered glass on the seed samples at the Yuriev Plant Production Institute. breeding companies do not receive orPHOTO CREDIT: RUBRYKA.COMhave problems with seed samples, they will not be able to sow seeds. Such a delay, even partial, is very extreme for seed sector. In such cases it would be very hard to recover, it's almost equiva-lent to a stop. That's why companies (Ukrainian and their parent companies) tend to keep going, so they would not stop completely. Thus, if a problem with breeding appears, seed companies will immediately have troubles, which, in turn, will lead to the reduction of sown areas and lower yields.Nowadays, all sectors of the economy are interconnected. Even foreigners are starting to feel it. That's why, the destruc-tion of genebanks and the Russians illegal moving of grains from Ukraine, endangers not only Ukrainian agricultural companies, but also food security on a global scale.
