A Code-of-Conduct Workshop
Jointly Organized by the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock in Afghanistan,
ICARDA and FAO
21 - 23 May 2002
Kabul, Afghanistan

4. CONCLUSIONS AND NEXT STEPS
The guiding principles formulated during this workshop represent the first science-based seed regulations for Afghanistan, and form a good basis for a national seed policy and related legislation. These principles are meant to guide the production, import and export, and distribution of plant genetic resources in Afghanistan, which are essential for rebuilding the country's agricultural sector.

Several points were raised during discussion sessions in the workshop that will be used to revise the current draft guidelines. Summaries of presentations made and the final guiding principles will be published as proceedings of the workshop.
