ECHO’s general information website can be found at: echonet.org 2 FOREWORD Seeds are a strategic starting point for any agricultural development programs and projects, and good seeds are undoubtedly one of the most important material inputs for farmers, both men and women. In some farming communities and families, seeds are the most significant predictor of productivity. For subsistence and small-scale farmers, whose resources are limited and risk taking capacity is low, what matter most are seeds that are yield-dependable, climate- smart and sustainable. Seed security – access to enough quality seed in time of planting – is paramount. ECHO Asia has been operating a Seed Bank in Thailand since 2009, the first Seed Bank outside of ECHO Inc. Florida Headquarters. The goal of the ECHO Asia Seed Bank is to serve as a resource facility for development workers within the region who wish to experiment with and/or promote underutilized crops as they find ways to improve the lives of the poor.

Maintaining Kindness: Refugee Circuits of Support Andrew Dicks University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Abstract: Refugees from Myanmar (Burma) made up the highest number of refugees admitted to the U.S. from 2007 to 2011. Once in the U.S., refugees are encouraged to quickly develop ‘self-sufficiency’ through employment. This article draws ethnographic research methods in order to depict the eco- nomic lives of the members of a Burmese refugee household in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The author uses Zelizer's (2010) idea of 'circuits of commerce' to characterize the economic activity observed and problematize ‘self- sufficiency’ as a means of integration in the U.S. Finally, when examined more broadly, refugees and their labor assist in refracting the relationship be- tween humanitarian aid and transnational labor flows. Key words: refugees, economics, circuits of commerce, humanitarianism, refugee resettlement On an overcast Sunday morning in the Spring of 2012, I was sitting at the kitchen table chatting with Ohnmar while she was cutting up a whole chicken for the curry she was about to make.
