| Abstract: | Private rights in living objects have always
been controversial. Agriculture provided the first wave in human civilization.
Therefore, agriculture including plant breeding and agricultural methods pre-dated
any form of IPR protection unlike industry and commerce. Traditionally, IPR was
not applied to agriculture. In recent times, this position has changed and
increasingly agriculture is seen as an industry that cannot survive without
research and development and astute investments. This has made it necessary
that IPR in all its forms be extended to agriculture. |
