Ownership of seed is a complex topic that can be confusing and polarizing. This recorded webinar can help you get a handle on it.
As legislative frameworks and corporate practices change, so do community responses to meet challenges and opportunities in seed production, saving and exchange. This webinar provides an overview of Canadian Intellectual Property Rights, and explores the topic of seed ownership. Brought to you by our Canadian program, The Bauta Family Initiative on Canadian Seed Security.
The webinar is split into three segments, each highlighting a different panelist. Check out all three clips below.
Ann Slater of The National Farmers Union | “Overview of Seed IPRs in Canada & Recent Changes to Legislation”
Julie Dawson of the University of Wisconsin Madison | “Intellectual Property Rights Challenges in the Context of Registered Varieties”
Jack Kloppenburg of the Open Source Seed Initiative | “Free the Seed: Open Source Plant Genetics”
