The Legal Basis of Plant Variety Rights and Case Studies on Their Impact on Farmers'Interests
Plant variety rights,as a form of intellectual property,have increasingly garnered attention for their protection and implementation.These rights aim to encourage the creation and promotion of new plant varieties,thus fostering progress in agricultural science and production enhancement.However,the intensified protection of plant variety rights has impacted the interests of farmers,especially in developing countries and agricultural power-houses.This study aims to analyze the legal basis of plant variety rights,their impact on farmers'interests,and their implementation in China.The research finds that although international and national laws protect plant variety rights,the interests of farmers are often not adequately safeguarded.The paper further explores the legal status and insufficient protection of farmers in disputes over plant variety rights,and finally proposes a path for legal harmo-nization,including strengthening legal mechanisms,enhancing farmer participation,and establishing effective dis-pute resolution mechanisms.The study suggests that by optimizing the management of plant variety rights,rein-forcing policy support,and enhancing international cooperation,a balance can be achieved between the protection of plant variety rights and farmers'interests,thereby promoting sustainable agricultural development.
