The document deals with the current status of Organic Farming in Ethiopia and its future prospects. The current fertility status of Ethiopian soil is a subject that needs an urgent interference from the government. Organic fertilizers play an important role in reclaiming the soil fertility. Food security can only be achieved when a healthy and fertile soil is available to grow crops and animal feeds.

Hamdard Laboratories (India), is a Unani pharmaceutical company in India (following the independence of India from Britain, "Hamdard" Unani branches were established in Bangladesh (erstwhile East Pakistan) and Pakistan). It was established in 1906 by Hakeem Hafiz Abdul Majeed in Delhi, and became
a waqf (non-profitable trust) in 1948. It is associated with Hamdard Foundation, a charitable educational trust.
Hamdard' is a compound word derived from Persian, which combines the words 'hum' (used in the sense of 'companion') and 'dard' (meaning 'pain'). 'Hamdard' thus means 'a companion in pain' and 'sympathizer in suffering'.
The goals of Hamdard were lofty; easing the suffering of the sick with healing herbs. With a simple tenet that no one has ever become poor by giving, Hakeem Abdul Majeed let the whole world find compassion in him.
They had always maintained that working in old, traditional ways would not be entirely fruitful. A broader outlook was essential for a continued and meaningful existence. their effective team at Hamdard helped the system gain its pride of place and thus they made an entry into an expansive world of discovery and research.
Hamdard Laboratories was founded in 1906 in Delhi by Hakeem Hafiz Abdul Majeed and Ansarullah Tabani, a Unani practitioner. The name Hamdard means "companion in suffering" in Urdu language.(itself borrowed from Persian) Hakim Hafiz Abdul Majeed was born in Pilibhit City UP, India in 1883 to Sheikh Rahim Bakhsh. He is said to have learnt the complete Quran Sharif by heart. He also studied the origin of Urdu and Persian languages. Subsequently, he acquired the highest degree in the unani system of medicine.
Hakim Hafiz Abdul Majeed got in touch with Hakim Zamal Khan, who had a keen interest in herbs and was famous for identifying medicinal plants. Having consulted with his wife, Abdul Majeed set up a herbal shop at Hauz Qazi in Delhi in 1906 and started to produce herbal medicine there. In 1920 the small herbal shop turned into a full-fledged production house.
Hamdard Foundation was created in 1964 to disburse the profits of the company to promote the interests of the society. All the profits of the company go to the foundation.
After Abdul Majeed's death, his son Hakeem Abdul Hameed took over the administration of Hamdard Laboratories at the age of fourteen.
Even with humble beginnings, the goals of Hamdard were lofty; easing the suffering of the sick with healing herbs. With a simple tenet that no one has ever become poor by giving, Hakeem Abdul Majeed let the whole world find compassion in him. Unfortunately, he passed away quite early but his wife, Rabia Begum, with the support of her son, Hakeem Abdul Hameed, not only kept the institution in existence but also expanded it. As he grew up, Hakeem Abdul Hameed took on all responsibilities. After helping with his younger brother's upbringing and education, he included him in running the institution. Both brothers Hakeem Abdul Hameed and Hakim Mohammed

2. Great challenge for agriculture
Increasing and securing food production with increasing demands on
quality by processors and consumers.
This is to be achieved
• With less external inputs on limited land
• Robust cultivars to combat risks due to more extreme and less
predictable weather events (heat, frost, drought, flooding) and new
emerging pest and diseases (climate change adaptation)
• less negative environmental impact ( less nutrient leaching,
greenhouse gas emissions, residues, fossil fuel requirements) →
climate-neutral agriculture
2
3. Why do we need an independent organic breeding
• Strong restriction of the genetic diversity of cultivated species
and animal breeds, patenting of living organisms and increasing
dependence on a few multi-national breeding companies.
• Conventional breeding with a focus on industrialised agriculture is
diverging more and more from the demands of organic producers for
sustainable production and animal welfare.
• Use of new breeding technologies adae.g. cell fusion, gene editing,
cis genetics) contradict the principles of IFOAM International.
• Continuous adaptation of cultivars to changing conditions (e.g.
climate change, new harmful organisms, customer requirements, legal
framework)
• Growing organic market with high demands on quality and
integrity of production, fair trade, regional production, sustainable
animal feed, closed nutrient and energy cycles, no environmental
pollution, diverse and nutritious food, vegetarian and allergy free
products
3
4. Demands of organic agriculture on the cultivars:
Varieties adapted to organic farms, which deliver sufficiently high and
above all stable yields of high quality even under low-input
conditions and build up soil fertility.
Specific variety requirements:
• Rapid youth development
• Nutrient efficiency and high N-fixation
• Weed suppression capacity or weed tolerance
• Resistance to soil- and seed-borne diseases
• Good digestibility and nutritional value of forage plants
• Good processability, nutritional quality and taste
Option for Farm saved seed
Genetic diversity
Prohibition of GMOs (including cytoplasm fusion, gene editing)
Conservation and free access to GMO-free genetic resources

5. Current situation in plant breeding:
The integrity of the organic sector is at stake
Large conventional breeders concentrate on a few large crops with a focus
on high input conventional agriculture.These varieties account for over 90%
of organic farming
neglect of niche crops important for organic farming such as legumes,
catch crops and special crops
Limited suitability of high-input varieties in organic farming
More and more methods used in conventional breeding do not comply with
the IFOAM guidelines for organic farming.
Cell fusion-derived CMS hybrids dominate the market for Brassica
vegetables and chicory, but are no longer permitted in most organic labels
leading to massive variety bottlenecks for cauliflower and broccoli.
Farmer stopp cultivation of these crops
Organic breeding relies on varieties that are cell fusion-free, reproducible,
robust, yield stable, locally adapted and tasteful.
5
6. Why Organic Plant Breeding must be strongly promoted?
• Today there is high dependency on cultivars bred for high input
conditions by multi-national companies (> 90%)
• Until now only few organic breeding initiatives covering a small
number of crops driven by pioneers investing own resources
• Breeding is long term approach needs 10 to 20 years before first
cultivars can be released, thus it needs long term engagement
• Special demand of organic sector needs higher and more diverse
breeding efforts
• Capacity building and career development of young breeders is
urgently needed
• Divergence in breeding goals and techniques will cause severe
shortage of cultivars and contamination problems in near future
• → loss of consumer trust

7. Present funding schemes for Organic Breeding
Donations
Donors: Seed Fund, Software AG Foundation, Mercator Foundation
Switzerland, etc.
• Most important resource for most organic breeders
• Minimal administrative effort
• non-profit status
• Purpose-oriented but limited in total volume
Licenses, seed reproduction fees, variety development
contributions & sale of seeds / vegetative plant material
Donors: farmers, gardeners
• Generate a certain amount of money backflow that can be
invested in breeding, but the contribution is usually between 0-
15%.
• Does not work if we strive for many cultivars and many different
varieties and animal breeds
, 7
8. Public funding
Donors: BLE, EU, BMBF, EiP, BLW etc.
• Only for breeding research not for practical breeding work
• High administrative effort for applications and reporting
• Often tied to a high proportion of own funds that are not available
Insentive charges for derogation of conventionally untreated
seed
Donors: farmers, gardeners
• So far only works in Switzerland (coordinated by Bio Suisse)
• Legal regulation is not allowed as it will cause distortion of
competition
• Danger of conventional suppliers increasing the price
• Will be obsolete as soon as 100% organic seed is reached

9. Participation of the value chain
Donors: Organic associations, processors, specialized trader, retailer,
consumer
• Coop Fund for Sustainability supports wheat breeding of GZPK
since 2003
• Fair Breeding 0.3% of net sales of fruit and vegetables
• Intensification project: Participation BNN and Software AG

Through cross-sector engagement in organic breeding, it is possible
to
• Maintain the integrity of the organic sector (consumer demand)
• Maintain the integrity of the genome (required by the IFOAM
guidelines)
• Breed plant cultivars of many crops that are adapted to organic
agriculture
• Integrate fragmented financing into a long-term approach that
meets the needs of the organic sector
• enlarge financial resources (from 2.3 Mio € to 10-20 Mio €)
allowing new breeding initiatives to emerge and promotion of
young breeders

16. What distinguishes aValue Chain Partnership
• Joint provision of sustainably produced food for the mutual benefit
of all stakeholders. Sharing of risks and benefits.
• Functioning value chains and close cooperation between the
actors based on partnership.
• Orientation towards added value for customers.
12. Februar 2019 16
• Organic breeding forms the basis for our organic foods of
tomorrow and is therefore part of the value chain: organic right
from the start.
• Organic breeding aims at the future: what is bred today will be on
our plates in 10-15 years.That is why we must take responsibility
today.

19. How does the organic sector benefits from organic
breeding?
• Organic breeding respects the values and principles of the whole
organic sector and does not use critical breeding methods.This
ensures the integrity of organic products and strengthens
consumer confidence.
• Organic breeding takes into account the needs of organic farmers,
processors, traders and customers.The breeding lays the
foundation for the high quality of organic food.
• Organic breeding produces animals that take animal welfare and
sustainable feeding and husbandry into account and creates
adapted plant varieties that satisfy farmers, processors and
consumers.
• Organic breeding is the basis for a self-determined, independent
further development of the organic sector.
