On August 17–18, Danish Minister Jacob Jensen visited Svalbard to learn about the Svalbard Global Seed Vault. He reviewed the upcoming October seed deposit prepared by NordGen, which includes 381 samples from Nordic countries, 19 of Danish origin, such as wild carrot, lingonberry, turnips, root parsley, and perennial ryegrass. The Seed Vault now holds over 4,600 Danish samples across 241 plant species.
