PRACTICE AREA
NEW PLANT VARIETIES
The protection of new plant varieties (cultivars) safeguards the genetic identity and quality of the newly developed variety and ensures the owner’s intellectual property.
Here’s what we can do for you:
- Strategic analysis of the viability and protection of new plant varieties – registration, plant patent, utility model;
- Assistance with filing the required documentation for plant registration with the Ministry of Agriculture and other government agencies (Brazil);
- Preparation and filing of applications for the registration of a plant variety;
- Management and surveillance of own or third party plant variety portfolios;
- Prosecution of infringement cases.
