Abstract
CAPFITOGEN tools and their evolution, CAPFITOGEN3, are the result of continuous work since 2012 when the first two tools were conceived and designed. These tools did not come out overnight but have been under a constant pro- cess of development since 2005 when the first ELC map was obtained. Then, other useful ecogeographic applications were developed for the conservation and use of plant genetic resources for food and agriculture (PGRFA). Since 2012, there have been great achievements, but also several mistakes have been made; we have encountered some obstacles and difficulties, but we have also come across wonderful people who have contributed to make CAPFITOGEN a dream come true. I talk about a dream because these tools were literally that, a dream I had when I finished my PhD thesis. At that time, I thought that some of these methodological advances should be available to everyone and not only to a small group of future researchers who would cite my papers. Based on that dream, I assumed the premise that the effort of working on the scientific field was only compensated when progress reached people to help them improve or make their lives easier. CAPFITOGEN has been able to reach a high number of technicians and researchers who consistently conserve and use agrobiodiversity. The program has been successful at supporting all these people by allowing them to perform analyses and tasks that would not have been possible before. (texto tomado de la fuente)
