For the execution of the project, at the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and Fisheries (MAAHF), a project coordination team was formed comprising of: ­ the PGRFA Focal point, Mrs. Patricia Milton; ­ the head of the Division Experimental Gardens of the Research Department, Mrs. Sunita Bipat; ­ the head of the Division Fruit Crops of the Research Department, Mrs. Soesila Ramautar; and ­ the head of the Seed Unit of the Research Department, Mrs. Esther Doelahasori. We express our appreciation to the organizations/professionals in Suriname that provided information on plant genetic resources for updating the report. These organizations include: - The Anne van Dijk Rice Research Centre (ADRON) of the Foundation National Rice Research Institute (SNRI) - The Centre for Agricultural Research in Suriname (CELOS) - National Institute for Environment and Development in Suriname (NIMOS) - The National Herbarium Suriname (BBS) - The Amazon Conservation Team Suriname (ACT Suriname) - The Ministry of Environment, Technological Development and Labour for granting permission to use information from a survey regarding aspects related to the “Biosafety Framework”, carried out on behalf of this ministry. - Mrs. Soesila Ramautar, Head of the Fruit Crops Division, for providing updated information on the status of ex-situ germplasm collections at the experimental gardens We would also like to express sincere appreciation to Mr. Stefano Diulgheroff, Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations (FAO), for his extensive contributions during the execution of the project. 3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report portrays an updated and detailed assessment on the status of conservation, sustainable use and development of plant genetic resources (PGR) for food and agriculture and forestry in Suriname. It reflects, among other, the capacity needs and constraints related to the current contribution of plant genetic resources to food and agriculture and forestry in Suriname. Important developments have occurred since the last report was produced and submitted to FAO in 2009. Even though a specific national policy for the management of plant genetic resources in Suriname is a shortcoming, progress in this direction has been made through the establishment, in December 2011, of a National Committee for the coordination of the activities on plant genetic resources. This has been one of the positive results of the process that also led to the establishment of the National Information Sharing Mechanism on plant genetic resources. Its portal and database1 are essential supporting tools for the Committee to operate. For agricultural and horticultural crops there is need for coordinated national programmes in Suriname with focus on well-organized plant genetic resources activities. For these crops elements related to plant genetic resources exist, but linkage between these elements is lacking. Different organizations conduct conservation activities to a certain extent. However, these activities do not occur according to standardized protocols and procedures. With regards to forestry species, the Government of Suriname has a long-standing commitment to nature preservation and biodiversity conservation. Forest genetic resources comprise timber species, medicinal plants and non-timber forest species. The Suriname Forest Service gives high priority to conservation and sustainable management of natural resources. Suriname's strong tradition of nature conservation with regard to forestry crops, its protection of biodiversity and its preservation of primary tropical forest is indicated by a nature conservation system comprising 13 protected areas, ranging from 100 to 1,600,000 ha, covering about 12% of the total land surface. These protected areas encompass a wide range of ecosystems, from tropical forests to coastal formations, making Suriname's nature conservation system one of the most representative in South America. Several organizations are either responsible for or managing genetic resources: The Research Department of The Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and Fisheries (MAAHF), the Suriname Forestry Service, two national institutes of the Anton de Kom (ADEK) University of Suriname (the National Herbarium Suriname and the National Zoological Collection Suriname), Conservation International, Suriname Conservation Foundation, the Amazon Conservation Team and The Anne van Dijk Rice Research Centre (ADRON). Suriname’s knowledge on genetic resources is best known for the coastal plain and savannah belt. Ex situ collections are scarce and the situation regarding the conservation of agricultural crops is unsatisfactory. Conservation is constrained by the lack of financial means and human capacity. Except for rice, seed production practices are inadequate, Not well regulated import of new varieties, lack of proper testing by

  • Joint Symposium on Maize and Peanut. Held in Surineme on Behalf of the 75Th Anniversary of the Agricultural Experiment Station of Paramaribo
    Joint symposium on maize and peanut. Held in Surineme on behalf of the 75th Anniversary of The Agricultural Experiment Station of Paramaribo. November 13 - 18, 1978 Proceedings of the Caribbean Food Crops Society. Vol. XV, 1978 ECONOMIC ASPECTS MICRO-ECONOMIC ASPECTS OF PEANUT PRODUCTION IN SURINAME IN RELATION TO IMPORT - SUBSTITUTION A.W. Graanoogst INTRODUCTION In Suriname peanut is grown as a regular crop: smalt plots of 0.04 —0.20 ha are planted 2 (sometimes 3 times) a year on the sandy ridges of the coastal plain. Main production areas are the Saramacca district and the Commewijne district. Total acreage planted amounted 242 ha in 1976 with a production of 290 tons dry pulses. Production is used for preparing salted and unsalted peanuts and peanut-sauce: a small part is manufactured into pea nut-butter. As local production still does not meet national demand an amount of 446 tons of shelled peanuts are imported mainly for the peanut-factories (in 1977). PRODUCTION TECHNIQUES AND PRODUCTION COSTS Although the planted plots are of a small acreage the used practices show a shifting from the traditional system where all operations (were done by hand and simple implements) to a lightly mechanized system. Seed-bed preparation of the greater part of the acreage is done by 2-wheel tractors. All further field operations such as seeding, ridging, weeding and pulling are done by hand and simple implement: sun-drying is generally practiced. Recent experiments on weedcontrol by spraying with herbicides has shown to be succesful. Efforts are undertaken by extension to get peanut-farmers aquainted with this new system of weed control thus enabling a further decrease of total labor costs in peanut growing.

De genoemde Neder- landse Vakverbonden stelden elk een hunner bestuurders be- schikbaar en wel respectievelijk de heren J. G. Suurhoff, H. J. Kuiper en F. P. Fuykschot. Deze drie vakbondsbestuurders vertrokken op 4 October 1948 per vliegtuig naar Suriname. De duur van hun bezoek was tevoren niet vastgesteld.maar op ongeveer drie maanden werd wel gerekend. In overleg met de Gouverneur bepaalden zij hun vertrek op 24 November, daar zij meenden met hun werk gereed te zijn en in staat een rapport uit te brengen. Drie dagen voor hun vertrek ontvingen zij een schriftelijke uitnodiging van de Gouverneur van de Nederlandse Antillen om ook in dat gebiedsdeel enige tijd door te brengen, de sociale verhoudingen aldaar te bestuderen en het Gouvernement van advies te dienen. Om verschillende redenen kon het bezoek aan de Nederlandse Antillen slechts twee weken duren. Op 6 December verlieten zij Curacao om naar Nederland terug te keren.

  • Dispersal of a Neotropical Nutmeg (Virola Sebifera) by Birds
    DISPERSAL OF A NEOTROPICAL NUTMEG (VIROLA SEBIFERA) BY BIRDS HENRY F. HOWE Program in Evolutionary Ecologyand Behavior, Department of Zoology, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa 52242 USA Al•ST•CT.--Feeding assemblagesof birds were observedat a Panamanian population of Virola sebifera (Myristicaceae) in order to test the hypothesisthat plants producing especiallynutritious fruits in limited supply should be efficiently dispersedby a small set of obligate frugivores. Virola sebifera producesan encapsulatedarillate seedthat is swallowed by birds shortly after dehiscence. The aril (54% lipid, 7% protein, 8% usable carbohydrate) is retained; the seed is regurgitated intact within 10-30 min. The plant produces 1-96 (Yc= 24) ripe arillate seedseach day, of which 40-89% (Yc= 76%) are taken within a few hours of dawn. The visitor assemblageconsists of six resident frugivores. Three [Chestnut-mandibledToucan (Ramphastosswainsonii), Keel-billed Toucans (R. sulfuratus), and Masked Tityra (Tityra semifasciata)] are "regulars," likely to visit all trees; three [Slaty-tailed Trogon (2•rogonmassena), Rufous Motmot (Baryphthengus martii), and Collared Aracari (Pteroglossustorquatus) are common throughout the Barro Colorado Forest but do not consistently use Virola sebifera. The Chestnut-mandibled Toucan is responsiblefor 43% of the seedsremoved by birds, although it is also responsiblefor more seedwaste (regurgi- tation under the tree crown) than other visitors. Rapid depletion of available fruits each morning and active defense of the crowns by toucans suggest a limited and preferred food resource for "regulars"in the assemblage. A review of recent work indicatesthat the assemblagevisiting Virola sebiferais similar to that frequenting its larger congener (V. surinamensis) but is far smaller and more specialized than those visiting other fruiting trees in the same forest.

  • The Marine Mollusca of Suriname (Dutch Guiana) Holocene and Recent
    THE MARINE MOLLUSCA OF SURINAME (DUTCH GUIANA) HOLOCENE AND RECENT Part II. BIVALVIA AND SCAPHOPODA by G. O. VAN REGTEREN ALTENA Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden "The student must know something of syste- matic work. This is populary supposed to be a dry-as-dust branch of zoology. In fact, the systematist may be called the dustman of biol- ogy, for he performs a laborious and frequently thankless task for his fellows, and yet it is one which is essential for their well-being and progress". Maud D. Haviland in: Forest, steppe and tundra, 1926. CONTENTS Ι. Introduction, systematic survey and page references 3 2. Bivalvia and Scaphopoda 7 3. References 86 4. List of corrections of Part I 93 5. Plates 94 6. Addendum 100 1. INTRODUCTION, SYSTEMATIC SURVEY AND PAGE REFERENCES In the first part of this work, published in 1969, I gave a general intro- duction to the Suriname marine Mollusca ; in this second part the Bivalvia and Scaphopoda are treated. The system (and frequently also the nomen- clature) of the Bivalvia are those employed in the "Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology, (N) Mollusca 6, Part I, Bivalvia, Volume 1 and 2". These volumes were issued in 1969 and contain the most modern system of the Bivalvia. For the Scaphopoda the system of Thiele (1935) is used. Since I published in 1968 a preliminary list of the marine Bivalvia of Suriname, several additions and changes have been made. I am indebted to Messrs. D. J. Green, R. H. Hill and P. G. E. F. Augustinus for having provided many new coastal records for several species.

O. VAN REGTEREN ALTENA Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie With 3 plates Vernhout (1914) was the first to publish an account of the land and fresh- water Mollusca of Suriname. In this publication he assembled not only the older literature in which species were mentioned from Suriname, but also he named the Mollusca collected by seven expeditions and some travellers, and included in his paper the material which W. C. van Heurn collected during his trip in 1911. So he laid a sound basis for future investigations. In the present paper only the land Prosobranchia are treated. On this matter, so far as I know, only one paper has been published since 1914. This paper (Altena, 1960) mentioned Lucidella lirata (Pfeiffer) from Tamba- redjo and Sidoredjo in the Saramacca district. The Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie received specimens from Suri- name from many persons to whom I am much indebted for their cooperation. Thanks are also due to Mr. H. E. Coomans who sent me the specimens on loan, which were collected in 1926 by D. L. Fernandes. Here follows a list which mentions in chronological sequence the collectors with the months and the years in which they collected, together with the abbreviations under which they are mentioned in the text.
