Guidance for Emergency Seed Interventions during the COVID-19 pandemic

Emergency seed interventions may already be planned or ongoing in many areas (e.g. to respond to
drought, pest infestation, displacement, or other stresses). COVID-19 and its associated restrictions
on travel, trade and markets may also constrain farmers’ seed security, as well as the ways in which
aid agencies are able to operate. This Guidance Note provides key information to implementing
organizations that might be considering an emergency seed intervention1 for the forthcoming planting season linked to the COVID-19 pandemic, often overlain with other stresses.
