Plant Variety Protection Act

Read a random definition: Money Order

A quick definition of Plant Variety Protection Act:

The Plant Variety Protection Act is a law that gives special protection to people who create new and different types of plants that produce seeds. This protection means that the person who created the plant has the right to be the only one who can sell, grow, and make new types of plants from it. This law helps encourage people to create new and better plants, which can be good for farmers and for the environment.

A more thorough explanation:

The Plant Variety Protection Act is a federal law that was passed in 1970. It provides patent-like protection for new and distinct varieties of seed-producing plants. This means that if someone develops a new plant variety, they can apply for a Certificate of Plant Variety Protection. If they are granted this certificate, they will have exclusive rights to sell, reproduce, and develop further hybrids from that plant.

For example, if a farmer develops a new type of corn that is resistant to a certain pest, they can apply for a Certificate of Plant Variety Protection. If they are granted this certificate, they will be the only ones who can sell, reproduce, and develop further hybrids from that type of corn.

The Plant Variety Protection Act is important because it encourages people to develop new and better plant varieties. This can lead to more efficient and sustainable agriculture, as well as better food security for everyone.
