Baker McKenzie's Global PVR Guide: Free Access for CIOPORA Members

CIOPORA Lawyer Member Baker McKenzie grants CIOPORA members free and unrestricted access to its newly launched Global PVR Guide.





About the project: The Global Plant Variety Rights Guide provides an easy way to get to know and compare different PVR systems around the world. The Guide covers 18 key jurisdictions, from China to Peru, from the USA to Australia, and from the European Union to Japan. Using the Plant Variety Rights Summary, plant breeders and PVR holders can quickly check the basics by country. For a deeper dive, the substantive Plant Variety Rights Guide provides the detail. Both the Summary and the Guide enable instant comparisons to be made between jurisdictions, reducing the time and uncertainty of PVR decision-making.
