Abstract
⺠Seed is key to food security but building resilient seed systems remains unexplored. ⺠A new tool, Seed System Security Assessment, reveals features to foster resilience. ⺠War, drought and earthquake field cases show system resilience, with qualification. ⺠Seed systems resilience is defined and fifteen concrete actions recommended. ⺠Informal seed markets and new information systems will prove especially key.
