South-North Trade, Intellectual Property Jurisdictions, and Freedom to Operate in Agricultural Research on Staple Crops
Overview A landmark in the 10,000-year history of agriculture was the Green Revolutionža revolution in agricultural production that took hold in the 1960s giving rise to unprecedented increases in the yields and production of basic food grains worldwide and a commensurate decline in the price of food despite continued population increase. The technologies came from a whole host of sources, including the international agricultural research centers collectively known as the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR, or CG for short). Most of the relevant research was paid for and conducted by public agencies, and the technologies and the seeds that embodied them were largely unencumbered by intellectual property (IP) concerns.
