Protect Breeding Intellectual Property

Registering proprietary plant varieties under the Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers' Rights Act, 2001 (PPV&FRA) prevents competitors from commercializing your genetics. We guide companies through the registration process.

Our Registration Scope

  • Dossier Compilation: Preparing morphological passport sheets, yield data grids, and parent lineage charts required for registration.
  • Category Identification: Directing filings under correct statutory classifications (New Varieties, Extant Notification, or Farmers' Varieties).
  • DUS Trial Coordination: Organizing seed sample submissions to designated central testing centers and tracking DUS field performances.
  • Objection & Renewal filings: Managing registry queries, responding to third-party claims, and coordinating certificate renewals.

Securing Breeder Rights

Securing a registration certificate grants exclusive marketing and distribution rights to the breeder company. This is a critical asset for business valuation, joint-ventures, and licensing agreements.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Expert answers to common plant variety registration and IP queries.

What is DUS testing under PPV&FRA?
DUS stands for Distinctiveness, Uniformity, and Stability. It is a mandatory field trial conducted by the PPV&FRA Authority over two growing seasons to verify that the candidate variety is morphologically unique and genetically stable.
What is an extant variety under the PPV&FRA Act?
An extant variety is a variety already notified under Section 5 of the Seeds Act 1966, or a farmers' variety, or a variety about which there is common knowledge. Extant varieties have shorter registration windows but offer valuable IP protection.
