National Register of Cultivar Ownership - RNPC
The objective of this Register, created by the Seed and Plant Genetic Creations Law in its article 19°, is to protect the property rights of the creators of new plant varieties, in recognition of their breeding activity.
In the Argentine Republic, plant varieties are protected by the granting of a property title. The registration of a cultivar in this Register does not entitle it to be marketed.
Consequently, in order to be able to protect a plant variety and at the same time be able to market it, that variety must be registered in both the National Register of Cultivar Property and the National Register of Cultivars.
We advise our clients on the best registration strategy to protect themselves against biopiracy, providing registration services for food products before the corresponding Sanitary Registration Bodies. As well as import and export procedures.
We analyse the possibility of protecting your plant variety in any country in the world and carry out the processing, granting and maintenance.
A search for a Cultivar can be made in the INASE National Catalogue of Cultivars
