The European Union
The European Union is funding
NCI's project Promoting Sustainable Production Systems of Cherimoya
in Latin America (CHERLA). The main objective of CHERLA is to develop
sustainable production systems for the cherimoya in three Andean countries
(Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru), by the characterization, conservation
and use of local genetic resources. These objectives will contribute
to preserving diversity in this underutilized fruit, and at the same
time, will lead to sustainable production strategies so the project
will have a real impact on the welfare of farming communities in these
Andean countries.
