El Proyecto Integrado de Seguridad Alimentaria (IFSP) es un programa de colaboración germano-vietnamita, cuya finalidad es mejorar las condiciones de vida mínimas de los habitantes de los distritos de Tuyen Hoa y Minh Hoa de la provincia de Quang Binh en Vietnam Central. Tuyen Hoa y Minh Hoa son distritos montañosos, con un extensión relativamente alta de cobertura de bosque, por lo que la población local no puede cultivar el grano suficiente para satisfacer sus necesidades mínimas de consumo.

Genetic diversity is the basis of the ability of organisms to adapt to changes in their environment through natural selection. Populations with little genetic variation are more vulnerable to the arrival of new pests or diseases, pollution, changes in climate and habitat destruction due to human activities or other catastrophic events. The inability to adapt to changing conditions greatly increases the risk of extinction. Gene conservation management aimed to save adaptive genetic diversity should be based on the knowledge of the genetic basis of adaptation.
