Description

Scientific and legal perspectives Engaging in agrochemical research and agribusiness is important and rewarding work, with solutions needed for the global challenges of decreasing agricultural land and increasing demands on the food supplies. Agriculture as we know it is rapidly changing, but the law and regulatory framework have been slow to adapt. New biotechnological advances are constantly emerging, and the resulting agro-products must overcome legal hurdles on their path to the marketplace. This book includes perspectives on intellectual property and the challenges that new agrochemical products face from the marketplace and regulators. Readers will gain an understanding of common challenges, review specific examples, and learn techniques to improve their patents.
