  • On-Farm Conservation of Some Vegetable Landraces in Korça Region
    Albanian j. agric. sci. 2016; Special. edition19-25 Agricultural University of Tirana RESEARCH ARTICLE (Open Access) On-farm conservation of some vegetable landraces in Korça region SOKRAT JANI1*, LIRI MIHO2 , VALBONA HOBDARI1 1Plant Genetic Resources Centre, Agricultural University of Tirana (AUT), Albania. 2Department of Agro-Environment and Ecology, Faculty of Agriculture and Environment, AUT, Albania. Abstract The paper explores the status of the diversity of local cultivars in some vegetables and the knowledge associated with them in the communities of Korça region. Out of 10 vegetable species studied, significant number of landraces exists for onion (4), cabbage (2), melon (2), pepper (2), and others by 1 (tomato, pumpkin, lettuce, leek, garlic, and string bean). It was found that these vegetables are cultivated mainly for family consumption and with minimal inputs. But when they are cultivated for commercial purposes, it seems that there is a change in management and inputs used. Overall, it was concluded that the level of landrace diversity has inversely direction to urbanization. Contrary to this belief, the study found that the market can increase their diversity; landraces offered are successfully commercialized. Indigenous vegetable gardens, cultivated for the market, are technically assisted by specialists of the region. After analyzing the findings of the study, for on farm conservation and sustainable use of traditional cultivars, five ways are suggested: a) promote the added value of products; b)consolidation of specialized markets that efficiently utilize their organoleptic qualities; c) creation of awareness at different levels; d) restoration and reintroduction of traditional cultivars through crop improvement processes; e) subsidies on-farm conservation of vegetable landraces, because their conservation and management can be considered as a service that should be rewarded by society.

Mr. Gilbert Galanxhi Ambassador of Albania to the U.S.A. US Helsinki Commission Washington, D.C., May 6th, 2013 Distinguished Mr. Chairman, Honorable Members of Congress, Distinguished Participants, Please allow me to extend my sincere thanks to the US Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe, known as the US Helsinki Commission, for providing me with this opportunity to share with you and this very distinguished audience some thoughts on “the Pace of Progress of Albania”, including reflections on some of the achievements, developments and concerns that my country, Albania, has been experiencing recently. I also want to thank all the previous speakers for their very well prepared and detailed presentations, which consider today’s topic 1 from different angles and viewpoints, but, I have to stress, with good intentions and the desire to see my country advance faster and better on the democratic path that it has definitely chosen. Distinguished friends, I sincerely consider myself to be amongst very good, principled and loyal friends today. It is an undeniable fact that Albania has made tremendous progress in the last two decades in every respect. What you and almost all western democracies have achieved in more than two hundred and fifty years, we have sought to achieve in less than twenty five years. We are conscious that we have to, because there is no other agenda, nor any better option for Albania than full integration into the European Union.
