Abstract
Although many developing countries have
drafted legislation to address plant variety protection
(PVP) requirements, relatively few have begun to implement
PVP, and little guidance is available on appropriate
strategies. This note looks at some of the key decisions
facing agricultural policymakers in establishing a PVP
regime, examines the implementation of PVP, assesses some of
the impacts and limitations of PVP regimes, and identifies
policy priorities that complement the establishment of IPRs
for plant breeding.
