Intellectual Property In Agriculture

Intellectual Property In Agriculture

This book is the first collective publication bringing together the results of the research activity carried out by the members of the international network "Intellectual Property in Agriculture" (https://ipagri.uib.eu/). The network is committed to cross-cutting and comprehensive research approaches to intellectual property and competition law in the agri-food and biotech sectors, and this book attempts to move in that direction, by addressing a limited but diverse number of relevant topics in those fields. It focuses mainly on two typically agricultural intellectual property rights, plant breeders' rights and geographical indications, in connection with a number of diverse issues, such as organic farming and the new notion of ôorganic variety suitable for organic productionö from art. 3(19) of Regulation (EU) 2018/848, the evolution of the UPOV system, Opinion 0003/19 of 14 May 2020 of the EBA of the EPO, the state of play in the EU with the regulation of GM crops, the new framework set by the ôEuropean Green Dealö, or innovation within the GIs' paradigm through plant breeding. The book is particularly addressed to policy-makers, lawyers, technical experts, and, in general, anyone with an interest in life sciences and law in those fields.
