About BRGV Buzău

The Plant Genetic Resources Bank for Vegetable, Floriculture, Aromatic and Medicinal Plants [BRGV] Buzau is a public research institution under the coordination of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development. The Bank’s main activity is the exploration, inventory, collection, research-development, and conservation of phytogenetic resources.

Vision

BRGV Buzau ensures the conservation of plant genetic resources for vegetable, floriculture, aromatic and medicinal plants, directly contributing to maintaining food biosecurity and the natural environment.

Mission

The research activity at BRGV Buzau significantly contributes to saving the indigenous genetic heritage in its activity profile – vegetable, floriculture, aromatic and medicinal plants, given that these are currently exposed to major threats: climate change, genetic erosion, genetic drift, mutations, and other mutagenic factors such as the chemical industry, environmental pollution, invasive plants, soil degradation, and pathogenic agents.

Values

We respect Nature and protect the plant kingdom.
BRGV Buzau contributes to the protection of the plant heritage, through firm and efficient measures regarding the safe storage of plant genetic resources, in cells with controlled atmosphere, as well as thorough knowledge of them through high precision tests in accordance with international standards. At the same time, valuable genotypes owned by the Bank are protected through homologation, patenting, and genetic fingerprinting, as appropriate.

Habitus Crâng

The Plant Genetic Resources Bank for Vegetable, Floriculture, Aromatic, and Medicinal Plants is located in Crâng Park in Buzau, one of the oldest parks in the country with a history of over 150 years.

Crâng Park in Buzau boasts a diverse habitat rich in biodiversity, with a variety of micro-habitats that host an impressive range of plants and animals. This provides our institution’s researchers with a nearby area for research.

We believe that providing detailed information about the flora and fauna of this natural habitat not only facilitates knowledge but also supports actions and campaigns for the protection and conservation of the environment and biodiversity. It also increases public awareness regarding the importance of nature conservation.
