Protecting plant varieties
Plant variety rights or plant breeder’s rights provide the opportunity to protect new
varieties of plants. This may regard flowers, such as tulips or roses, but also fruit
trees, etc.
Monopoly
When plant variety rights are granted, this ensures a temporary monopoly, relating to
the propagating activities and marketing of the propagating material such as for
instance rose cuttings of the protected variety.
