How can African countries use intellectual property rights to encourage plant breeding without taking away from the masses of small farmers the right to exchange seeds as they have done for thousands of years?

NWO researcher Bram de Jonge is diligently searching for a way out of a political minefield: in a case study on the NWO-WOTRO website, he has explained the ins and outs of his work.

Read the case study “Food for the many mouths of Africa” on the website of NWO-WOTRO.
