On 4 March 2020 a seminar focusing on Farm-Saved Seed took place in Tartu, Estonia. The seminar was organised by the CPVO in cooperation with the Estonian Ministry of Rural Affairs and the Estonian Agricultural Board.
The main objective of the seminar was to enhance the understanding of farmers regarding the Farm-Saved Seed (FSS) system in Estonia and surrounding countries where breeders face challenges in collecting royalties on FSS from protected varieties. The seminar focused on the situation in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Sweden and Finland.
The CPVO considers it of great importance that breeders of protected varieties are able to exercise their rights in accordance with the existing legislative acts in the European Union.
