Plant Variety Registration/Agribusiness consultation

The environment surrounding agriculture has changed significantly from various aspects in recent years.

This change is not just due to changes in environmental factors such as climate change. For example, there are technological advances such as the introduction of AI (artificial intelligence) and ICT (information and communication technology), institutional changes such as the entry into force of various trade agreements, and revisions to the Seed Law, Seedling Law, and other agricultural-related laws and regulations. , is occurring every day.

However, no matter how the surrounding environment changes, living things are at the center of agriculture, and the basic techniques for growing them remain unchanged. Japan, with its rich seasonal changes, ranks third in the world in terms of the number of applications for plant variety registration, and has an irreplaceable strength in that it has a wide base of plant breeders.

What is needed for agriculture to develop as an agribusiness, centered on these strengths and sometimes using changes in the surrounding environment as a tailwind? There is no doubt that sharing and differentiation of value will become more important than ever, and we believe that intellectual property rights can play a very important role in this regard.

In order to become a true consultation center specializing in agriculture-related intellectual property rights, our consultation office specializes in all types of intellectual property rights, including plant variety registration as well as trademarks, patents, utility models, designs, and know-how. We are organizing homes around the keywords "agriculture" and "plants."

We hope to be able to utilize intellectual property rights to help bring new value to the world in the field of agribusiness.
