Crop Diversity and a Seed Bank
Since crop diversity, which is crucial for natural processes in ecosystem, is now threatened, it is necessary to have a reliable seed bank. To be specific, maximization of agricultural productivity caused a decrease of crop diversity. Consequently, a number of crop varieties became extinct in many countries. In fact, diverse genetic pool is important for not only general environmental health but also human agriculture. This is because this pool protects the agricultural varieties from major climatic disasters. In order to maintain crop diversity, Norway planned to build a seed bank in the Arctic. By freezing seeds, scientists will be able to sustain seeds viable for 100 years.
This is a summary of an essay. I would really appreciate any recommendation or modification to this writing.

It is very well written and hard to improve. Maybe some words can be cut without harming the meaning; 'human agriculture' = 'agriculture', 'To be specific' = 'Specifically'. 'In order to' = 'To'. Anyway, it is shorter. That doesn't necessarily mean better; some scholarly work loves big words.
