Biodiversity-based agriculture that meets the sustainable development goals comes as an alternative model to industrial agriculture. A key issue for developing biodiversity-based agriculture is to build collaborative governance and management structures to increase farmers’ access to agrobiodiversity.

They proposed a framework for developing new participatory approaches for agrobiodiversity management and collaborative governance.
