No results found.This strategy was prepared in close cooperation with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry (MoAF) General Directorate of Nature Conservation and National Parks, General Directorate of Plant Production, General Directorate of Forestry and especially the Şanlıurfa Units. This project along with the Province-Based Steppe Conservation Strategy shows the importance FAO and the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry together with Şanlıurfa Governorship and other governmental organizations and institutions attach to the conservation of the steppe ecosystems in Şanlıurfa, their sustainable and cooperative management and awareness-raising. Steppe areas represent ecosystems that are very rich in biodiversity and serve as a very important insurance for the conservation of environment and food security of humanity. At present, the wild relatives of many cultivated species still exist in the steppes. In other words, steppes are important gene centers that contribute to the achievement of food security for the future. Şanlıurfa steppes, as part of the “Fertile Crescent” region, give a summary of the agricultural history of humanity and host a very important cultural and scientific heritage that enables us to re-evaluate the preparatory stages of transition to agriculture. In this strategy, while the general characteristics of the Şanlıurfa steppes are covered, the legal and administrative status of the steppes is also laid down. Within the framework of these data, strategies and mechanisms for co-operative and coordinated management of the steppes in the province are identified and presented. -
