ICUC<br />
The International Centre <strong>for</strong> Underutilised <strong>Crops</strong> (ICUC) is an autonomous,<br />
non-profit, scientific research and training centre. It was established in 1992 at<br />
<strong>the</strong> University of Southampton in <strong>the</strong> UK and has now moved to <strong>the</strong><br />
International Water Management Institute (IWMI) in Sri Lanka. The Centre<br />
was established to address ways to increase <strong>the</strong> use of underutilised crops <strong>for</strong><br />
food, nutrition, medicinal and industrial products. The enhancement of<br />
currently underutilised crops is a key to food security, to <strong>the</strong> conservation of<br />
biological diversity and to <strong>the</strong> preservation and restoration of fragile and<br />
degraded environments throughout <strong>the</strong> world.<br />
