SERVICES - PLANT BREEDERS RIGHTS (PBR/CPVR)
A third
important type of intellectual property protection is provided by The International Convention
for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants, known as UPOV.
Protection through
UPOV is also known as Plant Breeders Rights.
Some of the rights provided by UPOV include
limiting
the use of farm-saved seed and providing rights over harvested
material and their direct products.
It is important to
remember that plant protection laws vary from country to country.
