On October 30 in Geneva, UPOV will hold a seminar on the impact of policy on Essentially Derived Varieties (EDVs) on breeding strategy. The event is of a special significance to CIOPORA, who has been advocating for a broader EDV concept interpretation before UPOV and the member states with the goal to open the UPOV Explanatory Note on EDV.
The seminar presents a perfect opportunity for CIOPORA and its members to raise issues surrounding the current regulation of EDV and to put forward the CIOPORA's position on the subject. The CIOPORA members Micha Danziger, Danziger "DAN" Flower Farm (Israel), and Emma Brown, Plant & Food Research (New Zealand), are scheduled to speak about the impact of EDV concept on the plant breeding in ornamentals and fruits.
