A collaboration between Brazil's Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (Embrapa) and India's International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) has led to the importation of ICRISAT's entire chickpea germplasm bank to Brazil. The received seeds are currently in quarantine for testing and analysis before being integrated into Embrapa's Chickpea Active Germplasm Bank. This integration aims to enhance Brazil's chickpea genetic improvement programs, leading to the development of new cultivars with improved pest and drought tolerance. This initiative, facilitated by the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, is expected to enhance Brazil's chickpea production and export possibilities.

An agreement signed between the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (Embrapa) and the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT), headquartered in India, made it possible to import the entire grain germplasm bank (core collection) that country to integrate the Brazilian collection, used in genetic improvement research for the development of new cultivars. In all, Brazil received more than 25 kilos of chickpea seeds, 1853 of which were individually wrapped in paper envelopes containing approximately 100 seeds each. The material entered the country at the end of April and, after the import dossier under inspection by the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply (MAPA), is undergoing a quarantine period at Embrapa Genetic Resources and Biotechnology, located in Brasília/DF, for analysis and plant health tests, before being released for agricultural research purposes. “The transfer of the chickpea seed collection between India and Brazil ...
