Narrative
Utiliza o milho para fazer pão, farinha, sarrabulho, sopa de farinha e para dar de comer às galinhas e aos porcos. Para fazer pão utiliza 1/2 parte de milho para 1/2 de centeio. A amostra tinha milho rei. Este ano não conseguiu colher feijão, não produziu nada. Tiraram-se fotografias durante a colheita (fotos nº 3091 - 3100). Em 1995 os colectores Eliseu Bettencourt, Silas Pego e Amadeu Casal estiveram em casa deste senhor que lhes arranjou milho (nº de colheita 70/95 B - nº acesso 06752). O filho deles tem problemas com o alcool, quando lá estivemos em 2006 estava a tirar um curso de geriatria (curso financiado). A amostra 10/2006 B e a amostra 11/2006 B estavam no mesmo espigueiro. Continua a fazer a mesma quantidade que fazia nos anos 90. Este ano foi mais seco, quase não tinham água. Quase não colheram feijão, deu muito pouco.

Banco Nacional de Germoplasma Vegetal Policy

The “Banco Português de Germoplasma Vegetal” (BPGV) conserves living seed and plant samples of mainly Portuguese crops and their wild relatives.

BPGV ensures that the genetic resources that support our food supply are both secure in the medium and long term for future generations and available for use by farmers, plant breeders, and researchers.

These collections are important to ensure that crop plants, which may contain genes to resist disease, provide enhanced nutrition, or survive in changing or harsh environments do not become endangered or extinct over time.

The BPGV located in Braga, Portugal maintains clonal and seed collections of the most important crops, such as cereals, grain legumes, vegetables, medicinal and aromatic plants, forage, pasture and fruit species.

The BPGV is maintained as a global public good under the FAO International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (ITPGRFA).

BPGV is the custodian of one of the largest germplasm collections, with more than 10,000 accessions maintained as seeds and living plants, and recently started a cryopreservation programme.
