The Millennium Seed Bank Partnership (MSBP)

The Millennium Seed Bank's global network, The Millennium Seed Bank Partnership (MSBP), is one of the largest ex situ plant conservation programme in the world. Their focus is on global plant life faced with the threat of extinction and plants of most use for the future. Working with their network of partners across 100 countries and overseas territories, they have successfully banked over 13% of the world's wild plant species. Their website provides technical information sheets, covering various aspects of seed conservation practices and facilities. Their international newsletter "Samara" provides information and inspiration for MSBP partners and a flavour of the successes of the Partnership.
