Abstract: On-farm management of Agro biodiversity in the Western Ghats, the Biodiversity hotspot and a UN-accredited World Heritage Centre has become difficult due to an array of reasons. Specifically in rice-paddy system, the conversion of rice fields and dwindling diversity of rice landraces are found to be the biggest challenges. This case study describes the case of Wayanad District of Kerala, India, where concentrated efforts have been laid down to study, device and implement Agro biodiversity management centered on rice-paddy. Seeds are the inevitable part of Agro biodiversity, the source of life and the foundation of our existence. The selection and growing of seeds performed by our forefathers have contributed to the conservation of immense number of landraces that satisfy our different needs. This case study illustrates a movement that has promoted conservation of seeds of indigenous varieties of small-holders ' family farms in Wayanad District of Kerala. Effort has been made to integrate Conservation issues, Cultivation knowledge, Consumption awareness and Commercial aspects into one overarching policy strategy.

Abstract: The heady fragrance of Ezhilam Pala (Alstonia scholaris) flowers wafting through the air and the beautiful sight of the tree in full bloom can be seen only in Sacred groves and nowhere else. Snake worship an integral part of Dravidian culture is common in Kerala and sacred groves are mostly dedicated to snake god. When we hear of Sacred groves the image which comes to mind is that of a small densely growing forest spreading around deities of serpents. Right from Manjeswaram, to Parasala in Kerala, Sacred groves are found where the principle diety is Serpent god, Goddess Durga, Naga yakshi, Bhadrakali, Raktheswari etc.

Abstract: Natural coral reefs are the ' underwater rainforest ' of the Sea, an ecosystem where different marine species come together to live and grow in harmony. The Kerala coast in India runs north-south along the Arabian Sea and the 590 km long coastal ecosystem supports diverse species. The economic benefits derived from marine bioresources are the sole source of livelihood for many marginalized communities of Kerala. Kerala State has many rocky areas which provide substratum for a variety of benthic organisms including soft corals, gorgonids, hard corals, sponges, mussels, and algae. For generations, artisanal fishermen of Kerala have relied on traditional knowledge (Kanicham) to identify reefs, where fishes converge, for effective near shore natural resource management.

Abstract: Kerala is endowed with 2, 26, 275 ha of inland freshwater resources comprising 44 rivers, 49 interconnected backwaters, 53 reservoirs and innumerable irrigation tanks, streams and ponds. The inland fish resources of Kerala consist of about 250 freshwater fish species which provides ample support to the livelihood of the rural population and play a pivotal role in the economy of the state. A remarkable phenomenon locally called ?Ootha? or ?Oothyilakkam? occurs in the lowland fresh waters every monsoon, mainly in the floodplains of rivers, including their feeder streams, canalas, lakes and other water bodies, and also in vast stretches of paddy fields. ?Monsoon floodplain fishery?, as it is described, is the mass migration of freshwater fishes during the initial days of the south-west monsoon. A large variety of freshwater fish including Carps, Cat fishes and Perches regularly migrate as a group, swimming against the flow in rivers, and even jumping over small obstacles, on to a network of streams and irrigation canals in order to enter the flooded fields and plains, mainly to breed. The females of most such species carry ripe eggs and in the lowland plains they become sluggish, move with their pairs and lay eggs in nutrient- rich niches in rice fields and other such areas, which remain water logged for a while during the rains. This monsoon journey of the fishes to the flood plains every season is of great importance for the survival of the species.

Abstract: Near Nileshwaram in Kasaragod district of Kerala, the Thaikadappuram beach is famous for the rare Olive Ridley Turtles that visit during the rainy season to lay eggs. The coastal community considered turtle eggs and meat as their food. This resulted in slaughter of these poor creatures and destruction of their eggs. About one and a half decade back, a group formed by youngsters, ?Neythal,? committed to the conservation of environment and biodiversity took up protection of these turtles as a challenge. Thanks to their sincere efforts, now this beach spread over 15 km is a safe haven of turtles.

Abstract: The health of marine ecosystems and associated biodiversity are a fundamental basis not only for the livelihoods security of the coastal fisher folk but also for the capacity of the sector to contribute to its well being (FAO, 2014). A durable fishery depends on a well-functioning ecosystem which in turn calls for effective management systems that ensure its conservation. There is no need to reiterate the fact that there cannot be fish without the ecosystem that produce them. There is increasing recognition that fisheries management should integrate the Convention on Biodiversity. Article 7.2.2 of the code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries demands that the management measures should provide inter alia that the biodiversity of aquatic habitats and ecosystems is conserved and endangered species are protected. It is also true that without a socio-political context capable of nurturing an ethos of responsible stewardship there cannot be resilient fisheries. The notion of community as agents for fisheries management is gaining currency (Kooiman et al 2005).In this context it would be of interest to find a very unique traditional community based fisheries management institution called Kadalkodathy has stood the test of time along the Malabar Coast of Kerala.

Abstract: Crustaceans are highly economically important organisms. They comprise a major group of invertebrate biodiversity of the world and occupies a position after insects. Total number of species reported in the group is: World described /accepted minimum-25,000; world described/accepted maximum-68,171; world estimate -1, 50,000.Their sizes range from 0.1 mm (Styotantulus stocki) to 3.8 m long (Japanese spider crab leg span).Many crustaceans are consumed by humans, and nearly 10, 700,000 tons of crustaceans were produced in 2007 globally; the vast majority of this output is of decapods crustaceans: crabs, lobsters, shrimps and prawns. Over 60 % by weight of all crustaceans caught for consumption are shrimp and prawns, and nearly 80 % is produced in Asia, with China alone producing nearly half the world ' s total. Non-decapod crustaceans are not widely consumed. Antarctic krill is an exemption and its production is about 118, 000 tons, despite krill having one of the greatest biomasses on the planet.

Abstract: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations recognized Kuttanad below sea level farming as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System. It is the second farming system after the traditional Agricultural system of Koraput in Odisha to be accorded heritage status by the FAO in India. The Kuttanad Below Sea-level Farming System is distinctive; as it is one of the two systems in the world, where farming is practiced below sea level. The only other place, where below Sea level farming is practiced, is the Netherlands. Over the years Kuttanad has remained as the major rice bowl of the state and livelihood of thousands of farmers. Farmers of kuttanad have developed and mastered the marvelous system of below the sea level. This system also adds well in the conservation of ecosystems and supports biodiversity of the area.

Abstract: One of the important points of difference between sustainable agriculture and chemicalized agriculture is that while the former is biomass based the latter is yield based. The dominant thinking for almost the last fifty years has concentrated on the yield and this has resulted in agriculture becoming more and more single crop oriented. This in turn has made the agricultural fields highly vulnerable to external factors-from pest attacks to market forces. So what is the alternative?

Abstract: A healthy human adult needs 300 g of vegetables in his daily diet as recommended by Indian Council of Medical Research with its split up as 120 g of leafy vegetables, 80 g of tubers and 100 g of fruity vegetables. The population of 3.5 crores in Kerala requires 35 lakh tones of vegetables every year where as production is only 8 lakh tonnes. Hence in Kerala vegetable production has to be enhanced by four times to become self-sufficient. The annual consumption of vegetables by Keralites is 17 lakh tones. Thus there is a deficit of 50 % as far as the nutritional security is concerned. But there is limited scope for extending area under vegetable cultivation in Kerala. About 60 % of the land in Kerala is utilized for residential purpose. When urbanization is increasing at a faster rate, it is the cultivable land which is getting limited in area. Land has become the most limiting production in put in Kerala.

Abstract: Pollinators and pollination are crucial in the functioning of almost all terrestrial ecosystems including those dominated by agriculture because they are in the front line of sustainable productivity through plant reproduction. Pollination is the process by which pollen is transferred from the anther (male part) the stigma (female part) of the plant, thereby enabling fertilization and reproduction. This takes place in the angiosperms, the flower bearing plants. There are basically two types of pollination-biotic and abiotic. Biotic pollination is through insects, some birds and bats and abiotic pollination is through wind, water, etc. Around 80 per cent of all plant pollination is done biotically and the remaining 20 per cent is done abiotically.

Abstract: India, a mega-diverse nation, is one of the richest nations in terms of biological diversity. With only 2.4 % of the land area, India already accounts for 7.8 % of the global recorded species including about 12 % fish species and 6% flowering plant species. It is also rich in traditional and indigenous knowledge, both coded and informal. India has a great diversity of natural ecosystems ranging from the cold and high Himalayan regions to the sea costs; from the wet north-eastern green forests to the dry north western arid deserts; with different types of forests, wetlands, islands and the oceans. India consists of fertile river plains and high plateaus formed by several major rivers, including the Ganges, Brahmaputra and Indus. The diverse physical features and climatic situations have formed ecological habitats like forests, grasslands, wetlands, coastal and marine ecosystems and desert ecosystems, which harbor and sustain immense biodiversity. The country is also one of the 12 primary centres of origin of cultivated plants and domesticated animals.

Abstract: Biodiversity provides the building blocks for sustainable food, health and livelihood security systems. It is the feedstock for both the biotechnology industry and a climate resilient farming system. Because of its importance for human well being and survival, Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) was adopted at the UN Conference on Environment and Development held at Rio de Janeiro in 1992.The convention ' s triple goals are: conservation, sustainable use, and equitable sharing of benefits. The convention also recognizes that the biodiversity existing within a country is the sovereign property of its people. India is signatory to CBD and has enacted National Biodiversity Act which is in force from 2002.
