In Genesis, God says, “See, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is upon the earth, and every tree with seed as its fruit; you shall have them for food.”
For hundreds of years small-scale farmers have freely used their own seeds. But in recent years, laws have been passed which limit what farmers are allowed to do with their own seeds.
This gives small-scale farmers little choice but to buy more expensive seeds from large companies, making it harder for them and their families to produce enough food.
Will you send a vital message to the UK representatives at the World Bank, urging them to protect small farmers’ rights to freely choose their own seeds?
The World Bank has a lot of influence over agricultural issues and if enough of us call on the UK representatives at the World Bank to do the right thing and stand up for farmers’ rights to choose their own seeds, we can make a difference.
Over 3000 people have already taken this action, will you be the next?
Our faith-filled actions are like seeds, bearing fruits of change in our world. Through God's grace we can find the courage to speak up for what we believe in, and make a difference.
With our prayers and best wishes,
