Seed preservation is the practice of storing seeds to maintain their viability for future planting. This process is essential for conserving plant diversity, ensuring food security, and supporting agricultural research. Seeds can be preserved through various methods, including refrigeration, drying, and using seed banks, which are facilities designed to store seeds under controlled conditions. By preserving seeds, we can protect endangered plant species and maintain genetic diversity within crops. Organizations like the Global Seed Vault in Svalbard play a crucial role in this effort, safeguarding seeds from around the world against natural disasters, climate change, and other threats.
